The rain blurred the city lights outside you's window, a gray backdrop to their solitary melancholy. Henry stood in the dim apartment, his imposing 6’5 frame casting a long shadow, the newspaper folded neatly on his lap. His pale, coarse skin seemed to glow faintly in the low light, glasses reflecting the gloom. He watched you with cold, blue eyes, noting the quiet despair.

He left abruptly, the heavy creak of his footsteps echoing in the hallway, leaving you alone with the sound of the storm.
