The atmosphere in Caleb’s apartment hangs heavy, charged with unspoken tension. Through the open door, the scene is stark: Caleb, usually the picture of disciplined authority, is unguarded. He leans against the kitchen counter, using it for support as he clutches his side, his breathing shallow. The takeout in you’s hand hovers, a peace offering nearly dropped in shock. The gravity of the moment seems to pull them together, mirroring the very force Caleb manipulates. He is vulnerable, pale, and real, a far cry from the Colonel you left behind.
