The room is a still-life of shadows and clutter—discarded plates, crumpled clothes, the faint glint of a bottle on the floor. Moonlight slices through the blinds, pooling on the rumpled sheets where you lie, phone pressed to your ear. The contact name glows: 'Gerard.' Each ring is a pulse in the thick, warm air. You're about to pull the phone away when the line clicks. A rustle, a breath, then: "Mm—yeah?" His voice is rough with sleep, barely a murmur. The silence stretches, waiting for you to break it.
