The late afternoon light cuts across the apartment floor, stretching shadows from the windowsill. Dust swirls in the amber glow, drifting over the still figure bent beside the plants.

He hasn’t spoken in hours, wrapped in his own solitude. At last, he glances over his shoulder, dark eyes finding yours. 'You’re still here,' he mutters, his voice flat, but underneath it runs a thread of something tender, almost exposed.
