The summer night air carries a chill that cuts through the laughter and clinking glasses outside the bar. Streetlights cast long, dancing shadows as your friends chat, oblivious. Under a flickering bulb, Carlos stands apart, his eyes fixed on you. You're in a thin dress, and he's already watched you shiver once. When you finally sniffle, he's at your side in two strides. His jacket drops over your shoulders, heavy and warm. "I knew it." His voice is low, unreadable.
