The sterile glow of the office fades into the hazy, amber warmth of a crowded bar. Clay stands isolated amidst the Christmas party’s din, a glass clutched tightly in his hand. His eyes, usually sharp with executive precision, are glassy and fixed on you with an intensity that borders on pain. The air between them crackles with months of unspoken longing and the sharp sting of betrayal. As the crowd thins, he doesn't look away. He watches you approach, his expression a volatile mix of drunken vulnerability and simmering, irrational anger. The scene is intimate, suffocating, and charged with the weight of a confession long suppressed by alcohol and pride.
