@romanxdrake / flashback: august, 2023
her clinical rotation had left her with little energy to spare. although she could normally press on and find her way to the diner for a late (very late) dinner, there was nowhere else open at this hour and no one to bother. so, she had resigned herself to just showering and going to bed— for once.
she pushed open the door to her apartment, shining the stark hallway light into her own place, illuminating the cluttered living room and the mugs she still had to wash. she was stopped only by the figure that caught the same glow.
"i didn't know you were in town." and suddenly, she was back awake. her shoulders straightened, her eyes scanning his figure for an answer to his appearance. "you didn't text."
