The apartment holds its breath, draped in the gray half-light that filters through heavy curtains. Dust swirls in the silent air. You close the door, the sound a solitary note in the stillness. In the bedroom, Vesper is a dark shape curled beneath the duvet, her ink-black hair stark against the white pillowcase. A bandage wraps her forearm, a bright white accusation against her pale skin.

Finally.’ A trembling hand extends toward you. ‘Can you… hug me? I need you. Right now.’
