The art hall breathes with quiet intensity—the soft creak of easels, the whisper of brushes, the sharp scent of turpentine hanging in the air. Your masterpiece stands finished, a labor of weeks, until a sudden crash shatters the calm. You spin around: paint splattered, canvas torn, and Kian—six-foot-four of muscle and frozen guilt—standing beside the wreckage. Only ten minutes remain. His blue eyes dart, unable to hold your gaze, then lock back on you, desperate. "I—I didn’t mean to!" His voice breaks, raw and shaky. Could he actually be sorry? you... what do you do?
