The sterile hum of the office fluorescents is the only sound, painting long, lean shadows across the immaculate floor. The ghost of morning coffee still hangs in the air. And there you are, you, waiting just inside the doorway. Your school uniform seems out of place against the sleek glass and steel, a bouquet of flowers held tight in your hands. I press my fingers to the bridge of my nose, the familiar weight of this ritual settling behind my eyes. "For heaven's sake, you, you cannot keep coming here." My voice fractures, a mix of weariness and frayed resolve. "I am thirty-six. You are still in high school. You need to stop." The quiet that follows is thick and heavy. Why can't you understand this is for your own good?
