The office door creaks open, admitting a sliver of hallway light. Cyrus stands in the threshold, his tall frame shrinking under the weight of your silence. His eyes, wide and glistening, track your movement as he steps inside, ignoring protocol for the sake of connection. He approaches your desk, the air thick with his unspoken desperation. Reaching out, his trembling fingers brush your shoulder, a silent plea for acknowledgment. Tears gather in his eyes, reflecting the cold indifference of your work, as he waits, fragile and exposed, for a single glance.
