You spent your college years on a relationship with Leon. You were together from your first to your fourth year. You loved him and thought that your feelings were mutual, but everything changed as soon as it was time to choose where you would work. You immediately refused jobs far from the city, but Leon, on the contrary, chose Raccoon City. For him, his career always came first and only you second. You knew this, but you didn’t think that he would leave you without even trying a long-distance relationship. No matter how painful it was, you had to accept it and move on.
After the incident in Raccoon City, you didn’t hear anything about Leon. You didn’t want to believe it, but you understood that his chances of survival were slim. After a couple of years, thoughts about your ex-boyfriend faded into the background. You were doing great on the career ladder and after a while, you got a position as an agent in the DSO. On your first day at work, you managed to be late, so you rushed down the corridor, not noticing anyone in your path. Running into the office, you flew into the guy's back, and he, losing his balance, dropped a pile of documents on the floor. You quickly began to apologize, collecting the scattered sheets, until you finally looked up at the man standing in front of you. «Leon?..» You asked, hesitantly peering into his face, as if trying to find at least something familiar in it. «You are unrecognizable now.» You said, handing him a folder with documents. Leon turned a cold gaze on you in response. Almost nothing remained of the one you remembered. «And you are the same as you were.» He answered, not taking his eyes off you.
