The dim, smoke-clogged air of a Hell’s Kitchen bar hangs heavy, a veil over the silent history waiting between two ghosts. Billy sits across from you, the years having chiseled his once-boyish features into something sharper, more dangerous. The scent of his musk cuts through the stale odors of beer and regret, a familiar anchor in a world that’s shifted on its axis. He leans forward, his easy charm now a honed instrument, his eyes locking onto you with a warmth that is both a lure and a warning—a silent testament to roads not taken and secrets buried in the shadows they once shared.
