The door closed softly behind him, and for a moment, he did not speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I turned my head slightly away, choosing not to look at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had something to say, then he would say it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, then silence would remain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was dim, lit only by the faint glow of the lantern. His footsteps were quiet as he walked further inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then they stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was standing near the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could feel it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze was still and unmoving, fixed on me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few seconds passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bed dipped slightly as he sat down beside me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did not react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I kept my gaze turned away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before I could say anything, his hand moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In one smooth motion, he reached out, lifted me, and pulled me onto his lap, the blanket still wrapped around my body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The movement was sudden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I froze for a brief moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My hand pressed lightly against his chest as I steadied myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My voice was calm, but there was clear surprise in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not answer immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His arm settled firmly around me, holding me in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not forceful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not loose either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if he had already decided that I would not move away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I turned my head slightly to look at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You said I should leave,\" he said at last.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was low and steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And yet you came back,\" I replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not deny it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, his hold tightened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thought about it,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I waited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he did not continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I spoke instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You thought about it,\" I repeated. \"And this is your conclusion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I shifted slightly in his hold, but he did not let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You disappear the entire day,\" I continued, \"you return acting like a stranger, and now you come back to sit here like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I paused briefly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What exactly are you trying to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he answered without delay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do not want to leave things like that,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words were simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his tone carried weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I looked at him more carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then explain,\" I said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My voice remained steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What happened today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, he said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze lowered slightly, as if considering something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he looked back at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I saw someone,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer was unexpected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Someone?\" I repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he did not continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I studied him for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You left everything for one person,\" I said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My tone was calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you cannot explain it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His jaw tightened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is not that simple,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I held his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then make it simple,\" I replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence fell between us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His arm remained steady around me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his thoughts were still elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could see it clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have not been present since you returned,\" I said quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes shifted slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I let out a slow breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you are going to sit here and hold me like this,\" I said, \"then at least be present.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My voice did not rise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it did not soften.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze returned to mine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time fully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held my gaze for a moment longer before speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I saw an old friend,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was calm, but there was something beneath it that he was not saying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I did not expect to see her here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did not look away from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Her?\" I repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I studied his expression carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no joy in his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no clear displeasure either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was only uncertainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you happy to see her?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I paused briefly before continuing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or are you not?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze shifted slightly, as if the question itself was difficult for him to answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do not know,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reply was simple, but it carried weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I watched him quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You do not know,\" I repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not respond immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His arm remained around me, but his thoughts were no longer present in this room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had already gone back to that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To see someone you did not expect,\" I said slowly, \"and still not know how you feel about it...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I let the words settle between us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is not something small.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His jaw tightened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was acknowledgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I shifted slightly in his hold so that I could face him more directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who is she?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he did not answer at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His silence stretched longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he finally spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is someone from before,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice remained steady, but distant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I held his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before what?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, there was hesitation in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before everything changed,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer was vague.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was deliberate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I did not press him immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, I watched him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I observed the way his expression remained controlled and the way his eyes held something he was not ready to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You followed her,\" I said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not a question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not deny it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" he replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How long?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He answered without avoiding it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The entire day,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words settled heavily between us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I remained still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You left everything for her,\" I said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My voice was calm, but there was no softness in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hand tightened slightly at my side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I needed to be sure,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of what?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not answer immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That it was really her,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I went quiet for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I asked the one question that mattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And is it?\" I said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze met mine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And for the first time, there was no uncertainty in his answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence filled the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it was heavier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I held his gaze for a moment longer before speaking again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And now that you are sure,\" I said, \"what are you going to
