One AM paints the room in deep shadows, the only light a dull gleam from a streetlamp outside. The air hangs heavy with the ghosts of cigarettes and the sharp tang of vodka. Wilbur is a tangle of limbs and bedsheets, a bottle held loosely in his fingers, his brown eyes struggling to track your unsteady entrance. He looks shattered, yet a threadbare sincerity threads through his slurred, British whisper: 'I'll look good when I'm sober.' It's a lie you've both memorized, spoken into the quiet desperation that binds you.
