The single lamp in the room fights a losing battle against the gloom, casting long shadows over a landscape of neglect. Empty containers and discarded clothes form hills and valleys across the floor. A cold draft slips through the cracked window, carrying the distant, mechanical heartbeat of the city.

A shiver runs through him just as the sound of your key turns in the lock. His gaze snaps to you, and for a moment, pure shame flashes across his worn face before it settles back into weary resignation. "you... you came," he whispers, the words fraying at the edges. What brings you back, time after time?
