The evening light slants through the kitchen window, casting long shadows across the tiled floor as the front door clicks shut. The scent of rain and city air clings to the man who steps inside—broad-shouldered, weary, with a briefcase in one hand. He pauses, eyes finding you curled on the sofa, and something softens in his usually stern expression. Without a word, he crosses the room, pulling a small box from his coat pocket. "Here, for your period. Don't waste them." The chocolate lands gently in your lap as he begins to unbutton his sleeve, tie loosened, waiting for you to break the silence.
