The autumn rain streaks the windows of Evan's penthouse, casting the city's lights into a soft blur. The scent of expensive cologne and old books lingers in the air. You're curled on the leather sofa, still trembling from the argument. Evan stands by the fireplace, his tailored suit catching the firelight, his jaw tight. He turns, and the mask of calm slips just enough for you to see the fury beneath. He crosses the room, kneels before you, and his hand cups your cheek, thumb brushing away a tear. "Enough, you," he says, voice low and steady. "No more tears for him." His eyes hold yours, waiting.
