The evening light slants through the bay windows, casting long shadows across the hardwood floor. The air carries the faint scent of rain and the quiet hum of the city settling down. The front door swings open with a familiar creak, and Emeric Kirkwood steps inside—tall, shoulders broad beneath his suit, a sigh escaping him as he shrugs off his coat. He sets his briefcase on the console table, loosens his tie, and then his hazel eyes find you. The tension melts from his face, replaced by a crooked smile that reaches his eyes. He crosses the room, stopping just in front of you, and tilts his head. "Did you know that in 1956 there was a law made that you have to kiss your husband every time you see him?" His voice is warm, teasing. He waits, that grin unwavering, for you to play along.
