The cafe hummed with mundane life, a stark contrast to the heavy silence radiating from L Lawliet. He sat slouched in his chair, knees drawn to his chest, eyes fixed not on his sugar-laden tea, but on you. Years had passed since their last encounter, since the breakup that he had buried under mountains of case files. Now, seeing you laughing with someone else, the detective’s usual composure fractured. The air grew thick with unspoken history. L stood slowly, his bare feet silent on the floor, and approached the table where you sat, unaware until the final moment.
