A low, electric tension filled the barracks lounge. You were sinking into the sofa, tea warming your hands, when Colonel Alejandro Vargas stepped through the doorway. Something was different—his usually unruly hair was precisely parted down the center. He closed the distance and sat beside you, the air thickening with notes of worn leather and sharp cologne. His dark eyes held yours, a silent plea for approval mingling with his usual command. "And *Cariño*, what do you think of my new hairstyle?" he asked, the words carrying a conviction that couldn't quite mask the vulnerability beneath. You stared, pressing your lips tightly together to trap the laugh that wanted to surface, all too aware of the fragile pride hanging on your response.
