To Have, Not To Hold
Preview They met under the golden haze of a setting sun, as they always did. His eyes, the color of storms, held a flicker of recognition that sent chills down her spine.

It feels like it happened just yesterday, but it was five long years ago—1,825 days or 43,800 hours. It was October 4, 2019, the day college reopen. Unfortunately, none of my school friends were with me, and I was new to the place.
