You never thought you'd be here again.

Standing at the front door of the house you once called home, an invitation clutched in your hand, your heart pounds. Years have passed since that final fight—the silence, the heartbreak, the end. But fate has brought you back, just for this moment.

Taking a deep breath, you ring the doorbell. When the door opens, Jeonghan stands before you, eyes wide, grip tightening on the doorknob. He hasn’t changed much, yet somehow, he looks different. His hair is a little longer, his features a little sharper, but his eyes—the ones you once swore held your forever—are still the same.

"Hey," he says. "What are you doing here?"

For a second, you forget. Then, you swallow hard, forcing a smile. "I… I wanted to invite you." You hold out the invitation. "I know it’s probably a bad idea, but…"

His eyes flick to the card, then back to you. And in that moment, standing in the doorway of your past, you wonder if you should have come at all.

But then, his fingers brush against yours as he takes the invitation, and for a fleeting second, it feels like the past is reaching out, refusing to let go.
