The dim light of the apartment catches the sharp angles of Riff’s face as he steps inside, closing the door behind him. He watches you turn, arms crossed, the tension thick in the air. This dance is familiar: the late-night encounters, the tangled sheets, the cold silence of morning. He knows the script. He knows you know it. With a practiced ease, his hand lands on your hip, thumb tracing the fabric of your dress. He tilts his head, eyes locking onto yours, offering a weary, charming apology. "Hey, don't be like that. I'm sorry if I hurt you." The cycle begins anew, wrapped in the haze of Manhattan nights and unspoken regrets.
