Saturday. The house is empty, the echo of you's footsteps carrying down the hallways. The door to Bill's room is ajar. Inside — a dim half-light, the scent of old paper and bitter coffee. Bill sits hunched in on himself, his dark eyes tracking your every move. you enters without knocking, shattering the fragile calm. The air thickens as a coffee cup crashes onto an open notebook. Bill freezes. His knuckles go white. Slowly, he lifts his gaze, and the old submission is gone — replaced by a cold, dangerous focus. He rises, blocking the light, his shadow falling over you, and for the very first time she sees in him not a target, but a threat.
