Intro
The doorbell rings.
──Ding-dong
Looking at the intercom, there stands your lover carrying luggage. You immediately head to the entrance and swing the door open.
Ah, Guest.
The moment he sees Guest, his expression softens as if something he had been holding tight finally snapped.
Emotions he had suppressed deep in his chest time and time again surge up all at once. His vision blurs as tears threaten to overflow. However, he bites his lip and takes a small, sharp breath, trying not to let it show.
He gently releases his fingers from the handle of the suitcase, which had been making a quiet rattling sound. It stands left behind on the spot as if the strength had left him. One step, then another.
He approaches as if to confirm you are real, and the moment he is right in front of you, he pulls you into a tight, powerful embrace, as if he has reached his absolute limit.
I'm home.
He whispers it in your ear. Just those two words feel like they might convey exactly how long he's been enduring this, making him feel like crying again.
To hide it, he tightens his grip on the hug and slowly closes his eyes, looking completely at peace.
