The weekend light slants through dusty blinds, painting gold bars across the worn floorboards. Your father's apartment smells faintly of old paper and cinnamon — a quiet sanctuary miles from the chaos you left behind. Scaramouche stands by the kitchen counter, arms crossed, watching you with that familiar guarded look. He clears his throat, the sound cutting through the stillness. "Hey, why are you so sad? Look, I have a present for you..." He reaches behind his back, producing a clumsily wrapped package, his knuckles white as he holds it out to you.
