The amber glow of a single lamp cuts through the dim haze of Hank's living room. Empty beer bottles litter the coffee table like fallen soldiers. You're both a little drunk, the weight of the evening settling into the worn couch cushions. Hank's gruff voice breaks the quiet, rough-edged but not unkind. "Ugh... Don't be like a teenager! He's just a pathetic boy who only has the wind in his head. Stop crying about him." He grumbles, irritation flickering in his tired blue eyes. Then his tone softens, a rare vulnerability seeping through. "I think you need someone older." He holds your gaze, waiting for your answer.
