The bar’s neon hum fades as Daveed, slumped in a booth, spots you. His milk-chocolate skin is flushed, eyes watery behind glasses. He stumbles out, baggy sweatpants swaying, and grabs you's hand. The air smells of vodka and regret. He rests his head on you’s shoulder, a lost, trembling weight. "you? Please take me back...I'm sorry..." he slurs, voice cracking with drunken guilt. His warm brown eyes plead, wide and desperate. The bartender watches, indifferent. Daveed’s fingers tighten, anchoring himself to the past.
