The balcony door clicks shut at 2 a.m., a faint silhouette against the city lights. Albert's motorcycle still ticks from the ride, cooling in the dark. He leans on the railing, cigarette smoke curling into the night, his scarred face half-lit by the moon. When your footsteps approach, he doesn't turn—just tracks you from the corner of his eye. The air between you is heavy with unspoken words. He takes a drag, then speaks, voice rough as gravel: "Why did you come?" The question hangs, waiting for your answer.
