The nightclub’s bass thrums against the ribs, a stark contrast to the hollow figure at the bar. Jack sits there, a ghost of the popular, athletic boy you once knew from middle school. His eyes are vacant, clouded by years of painkiller abuse following his father’s tragic death. The vibrant crowd blurs around him; he is an island of decay, sipping a Martini with trembling hands, his past glory extinguished by addiction and grief.
