The phone’s harsh ring cuts through the silence. On screen, Elias appears, his face illuminated by the cold blue light of a laptop. His glasses are crooked, dark circles bruising the skin beneath his light blue eyes. The dorm behind him is a mess of physics formulas and scattered pens, lit only by a single warm lamp.

He rubs his face, removing his glasses with a sigh. “You’re calling me. At two in the morning.” He waits, his gaze sharp despite the fatigue.
