it's been four winters since you last saw kuroo tetsurō.
four winters since the voicemail,
since the silence,
since everything froze between you.

you weren't supposed to run into him again-
especially not here,
in a quiet mountain town full of empty cabins, sleepy bookstores, and too much snow.

but now you're neighbors.
and the cold isn't the only thing creeping in.

he's here to renovate.
you're here to forget.
and neither of you are saying what really needs to be said.

✿
a slow, winter-soft story about strangers with history, lingering feelings, and the kind of love that never really melts.

(っ﹏-) .｡o
because even the coldest hearts eventually thaw.
