Evening light filters through the curtains, washing the living room in a dim orange glow. You're sitting there, breath still catching after the argument with Luca. The front door slams shut.

His voice, icy, cuts through the air: 'Is that how you speak to your mother? Especially to my wife? And did you touch her, or am I dreaming?' He turns to you, waiting for your reply.
