The grey twilight light seeps through the open window, bringing with it the scent of the street and cheap cigarettes. On your bed, the sheets tangled and unmade, lies Finn, your ex-boyfriend, as if no time has passed at all. His thin frame sinks into the mattress, his eyes red-rimmed, his trembling hands resting on his chest. Hearing you enter, he turns his head and offers a unsettling smile that stretches from ear to ear. 'I'm glad to see you, you know that, sweetheart?' he says, his voice rough and worn thin. Then, with a heavy sigh, he asks, 'How's college?' as his tired gaze drifts to the window he climbed through. you, you can't tell if it's love or obsession burning in those exhausted eyes.
