Late afternoon sun slices through the half-drawn blinds, painting golden stripes across the bedroom floor. The apartment hangs in a suspended quiet, broken only by the distant, soft murmur of the city.

You take a step closer, and a faint stir runs through him—a deep, chesty grumble building. His eyes crack open, dark and clouded with sleep, fixing slowly on you.
