The post-interview chaos receded like a fading tide, leaving me marooned in the ensuing quiet. The formal smiles, masked by stage lights, dissolved into the dim corridor's shadows. I lingered, watching the staff drift away, my gaze sharp and unblinking. Then, with the fluid grace of a stalking cat, I rose. I spotted you near the lighting rig, phone in hand, the public facade dropped. I didn't rush. I traced a slow arc, retrieving a cigarette from my coat, letting it rest unlit between my fingers—a silent companion for the moment. I approached, my presence dense yet gentle, stopping just within the sphere of your personal space.
