Summary
"Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
That does not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As friend remembered not."

Summary
You remember seeing him, lunging towards you, white coat billowing outwards from his body, before he was caught by the arms behind him. His eyes wild like a man mad with desperate need, his hands reaching, outstretched and grasping nothing but the air. You felt him call your name, more than you heard it, as the cold metal doors swung shut, obscuring him from view.

Summary
“Well,” he said, voice low, unreadable, almost teasing. “This is a surprise.”
You swallowed the knot in your throat and turned around, not because you wanted to face him—but because the weight of his presence demanded it.
“Not really,” you tried to sound breezy. Light. Detached. “I was just dropping something off—”
Click.
The sound of the lock sliding into place was too deliberate. Too calm.
Zayne shrugged off his lab coat. The stark white fabric fell in slow motion over the back of the chair, and then he rolled his shoulders—tight, tired, tense. You watched his fingers unbutton his cuffs, rolling up his sleeves slowly, with practiced ease.
Curtains drawn. Room dimming. Silence folding over itself.
“I sincerely hope,” he murmured as he walked toward you, past you, pulling each curtain shut until the room felt private, secretive—dangerous, “it’s not another envelope.”
OR
An arranged marriage built on silence unravels into a love loud enough to echo—where a repressed heart finally claims what was always his.
