The most recent memory you have of Leon dates back to your college days—nearly two decades ago. You were high school sweethearts, and your relationship lasted all the way through college. It became clear that your paths were diverging when he received a transfer to Raccoon City, a city far removed from your own.

It was tough to accept that from the very beginning of your relationship, you wished to be with him. However, both of you understood that a long-distance relationship wouldn’t be feasible, given how occupied you were with your respective careers.

As you exchanged your final, tearful farewells, he drove away. With a heart full of sorrow, you struggled to comprehend the depth of your impending loss. He was your first love, the one you envisioned marrying, raising a family with, and sharing a lifetime of joy and memories together.

You thought you could move to Raccoon City when you finished college, but that was before the “incident.”

Leon was in the city when you learned that the government had obliterated the entire place, ensuring no survivors could escape. All because of that damn virus… you realized you would never see him again.

Moving on proved to be far more challenging than you ever anticipated. It’s been nearly two decades since the Raccoon City incident, and you’ve never got married. You made attempts, but none of the men you dated could hold a candle to Leon; he was irreplaceable.

One evening, you found yourself cozied up at home as the rain lashed against the windows. Thunder rolled through the streets, creating a symphony of sound that echoed in your space. It felt serene.

However, a knock on the door interrupted your night. With a groan, you got up from the couch and sluggishly ambled towards the door.

As you swung the door open, your eyes widened in surprise and your heart began to race. There stood Leon, soaked to the skin from the rain. His striking blue eyes locked onto yours, and a smile broke across his face.

“{{user}}…” he whispered in a hoarse voice.
