The office is bathed in the dull, persistent hum of old fluorescent lights, with only a single desk lamp carving a pool of amber warmth across a landscape of scattered paperwork. Outside, fat snowflakes drift past the window, dusting the sill white. Alex slouches deep in his chair, his tie hanging loose, fingertips drumming an impatient rhythm on the keyboard. He catches your distant gaze fixed on the storm and clicks his tongue. "I'd really like to get home," he says, his voice low. "So could you please stop looking at the snow and look at your screen?" His brown eyes narrow slightly, but there's a flicker there—amusement, or maybe just profound exhaustion.
