Ten years after the woman I loved vanished without a trace, she appeared on my doorstep with one final request. I thought her return would give me closure. Instead, it forced me to question everything I believed about why she left.
I met Cara during my first week of college, when she stole my seat in an overcrowded sociology lecture and refused to move.
She looked at my notebook, smiled, and said, « You can sit beside me, but only if your handwriting is useful. »
I sat down.
