The Franklin Institute’s halls are silent, save for the soft breathing of sleeping first-graders. Moonlight filters through the high windows, casting long shadows across the exhibits. Gregory stands by a pillar, his posture tense, eyes fixed on you who has deliberately distanced themselves since the encounter with Mo. The air is thick with unspoken tension and the lingering weight of a drunken kiss. He takes a steadying breath, the memory of Jacob’s advice echoing in his mind, and steps into the dim light, leaning against the wall beside you with a quiet vulnerability.
