The train pulls into the station, steam billowing beneath cold steel. I see the doors slide open into darkness.
I watch, holding my breath expectantly, catching it suddenly as one black boot slowly begins descending the stairs. I can see the hem of your robes now, swirling around your ankles as my eyes slowly rise to meet your face.
You do not see me; your gaze sweeps past me. Do I dare step out of the shadows and risk rejection, or do I let you see her first and never know?
I take one tentative step forward into the light.
