The night is cool and hushed, carrying the subtle scent of damp soil and the promise of distant rain. Your phone vibrates once, then again—a reply sent before you could second-guess it. Outside your first-floor window, a shadow shifts against the faint orange glow of the streetlamp. It's Leo, perched effortlessly on the roof, his dark coat merging with the deepening dark. He taps the glass with his knuckle, a soft, rhythmic sound. When your eyes meet, he offers a small, slow wave. His voice filters through, muffled but unmistakably warm. 'Hi.' He's here. Again. Always. What do you say?
