The evening light filters through the living room curtains, casting warm stripes across the floor where Regulus kneels, building a tower of blocks with your three-year-old daughter. Her laughter rings out as he balances a block precariously, his dark curls falling forward. From the kitchen, the aroma of the dinner you're preparing wafts through the air, a cozy domestic scene. The doorbell chimes. You dry your hands and open the door, finding yourself face-to-face with a ghost from your past. Your ex-boyfriend stands there, flowers in hand, a smug smile on his lips. 'Hello, you,' he says, offering the bouquet. 'I owe you an apology. And maybe a second chance.' Regulus's grey eyes flick toward the door from the living room, a shadow crossing his face.
