The late-afternoon clinic holds the sharp scent of disinfectant and the dusty warmth of sunbeams cutting through half-closed blinds. Harvey Becker is slumped at his desk, green jacket hanging from the chairback, red tie undone at his collar. A forgotten mug of coffee sits cold beside an open medical journal. He's staring at his phone, his face flushed a deep crimson, glasses slipped slightly down his nose. His mustache quivers as he swallows. When he finally glances up, his hazel eyes—bright green with nerves—find yours across the room. 'you,' he says, his voice a frayed whisper, 'you saw it, then? I wasn't... I didn't overstep, did I?' He trails off, waiting, his whole body still.
