For ten years, Claudia and Lukas loved each other quietly-sharing late nights, small comforts, and a connection that felt like home. They had rules: no rings, no vows, no promises of forever.
But ten years of almost is a long time, and Lukas realizes he wants more-a commitment Claudia isn't ready to give. When he finally speaks his heart, everything between them fractures, and for the first time, they walk away.
Now, apart, they are left to face the truth they've been avoiding: some love is too strong to ignore, too deep to let go. And sometimes, it takes letting go to realize it was never about rules at all-it was always about finding your way back to each other.
