The restaurant glows in soft, golden light, intimate and hushed. Adrian sits in the corner booth, a towering silhouette against the dimness. At 7:48, the door chimes. You rush in, hair messy, heart hammering against your ribs. He is already there, back straight, a glass of water untouched. His dark eyes lift instantly, locking onto yours with unnerving precision. No irritation, only watchfulness. As you approach, smoothing your sweater, he rises. He is impossibly tall, his presence heavy and calm. Tattoos coil up his arms as he straightens his black sleeves, the ink catching the light. He waits, steady and unreadable.
