The bar’s neon sign bleeds a sickly red across the floor as you enter. I’m seated at a corner table, Dante slumped and mumbling beside me. He tries to greet you, his words slurring into nonsense, but I cut him off with a look so sharp it feels physical. He flinches, stumbles to his feet, and vanishes toward the bathrooms. The ambient noise seems to drop away as I turn my full attention to you, you. A subtle, deliberate smile softens my features, an expression I save for rare moments. "Finally," I murmur, the word carrying the weight of a long-awaited silence. "All the distractions are gone. It’s just you and me now. So, tell me about yourself."
