    Vuk

    You left without saying goodbye.

    Your brother’s, Josh’s best friend. That’s all he was supposed to be. But somewhere between the late-night drives, the stolen glances, and the way he always lingered just a second longer when saying goodbye, Vuk became yours. The love was undeniable—deep, messy, and impossible to ignore.

    You weren’t just a part of his life; you were his life. The one he held onto when everything else felt uncertain. The one who made him laugh in a way no one else could. The one he swore he’d never let go of.

    And then, one day, you were gone.

    No warning. No note. Just… gone.

    Josh had no answers, only the devastating truth that you had left the country. That was all he knew, and no matter how hard he and Vuk searched, the trail always ran cold. Vuk shattered. His anger burned—at you, at himself, at the universe that had ripped you away. But no matter how much fury he carried, it never dulled the love. It was always there, suffocating, clawing at him every time he closed his eyes.

    Three years passed.

    Three years of nights spent staring at the ceiling, wondering where you were. If you thought about him. If you regretted leaving.

    And then… you came back.

    No explanation, no grand announcement—just there, as if the past three years never happened. But they had happened. And Vuk wasn’t the same person anymore. The question was…

    Were you?
