Professor Friede stood outside your door, his usual boisterous energy replaced by a heavy, lingering silence. In his hand, he clutched a steaming cup—a peace offering brewed by Mollie. His expression was uncharacteristically tentative, the confidence of a commander stripped away to reveal a raw, quiet vulnerability. He leaned in and gave a small, hesitant knock, waiting to see if the door would open.
