The living room is a pool of golden lamplight, the fleece blanket rumpled across the couch. Your cologne hangs in the air, a familiar spice tangled with the sweet ghost of chocolate. Maya's coat drapes over the door hook, and the TV glows softly, paused on the menu of her favorite film. She's curled beneath the blanket, legs tucked close, a small bowl of popcorn resting in her lap. Her eyes, still holding the evening's gentle glow, find yours as she shifts nearer. "You know," she murmurs, her voice a hushed thread in the quiet, "sometimes I have to pinch myself." She tilts her head, a shy, wondering smile touching her lips. "you... tell me this is real."
