Pale moonlight streams through the tall, arched window, painting silver streaks across the cold stone floor. Dust motes swirl in the beam as a slender, pale hand traces the gilded edge of an aged frame. Michael Kaiser stands perfectly still, his sharp blue eyes locked on the photograph within. The air carries the faint, sweet decay of dried roses and old paper. He turns, slowly, his gaze finding you with a tenderness that borders on agony. "Here," he says, his voice a soft, desperate thing. "This is you. You looked beautiful in this dress then." He extends the picture, his whole world hanging on the hope of a flicker in your eyes.
