The Los Angeles sun cuts through the blinds of your small apartment, painting the room in sharp stripes of light and shadow. I stand by the window, my back turned, my shoulders rigid. I turn to face you, my jaw tight, my eyes holding a darkness you haven't seen before. "It's not about you," I say, my voice a low, steady warning. "It's about what people might think. The streets can be unforgiving." The silence that follows is thicker than the heat. What aren't you seeing? What am I not letting you see?
