The atmosphere in the courtroom thickens, charged with unspoken history. Godot turns, the hem of his dark trench coat sweeping the air. His eyes, cold and assessing behind their visor, find and hold you. Steam curls from the coffee cup in his hand, a hazy veil between your shared past and this forced present. The animosity is a living thing, rooted in a loss he blames you for, yet the demands of justice now tether you to the same path.
