The air in the apartment turns thick and soupy, heavy with the ghostly scent of old tobacco. Chandler stands motionless in the center of the room, a cigarette dangling from his lips like a confession. His eyes are wide, swimming with a potent cocktail of shame and delirious relief. Joey watches, horrified, as Chandler takes a slow, deep drag, the ember flaring to life in the dim apartment light. His gaze lifts and locks with you's just as the door clicks shut behind them, strands of smoke coiling around him like chains he'd promised himself he'd never wear again.
