The hallway light is dim, carving long shadows across the carpet. A soft, hesitant knock breaks the silence of your hotel room. You open the door to find a man standing there, water beading on his jeans and dripping steadily onto the floor. His smile is weary and apologetic, but his eyes hold a warm, pleading light. "Hey… sorry to bother you so late," he begins, running a hand through his damp hair with a sigh. "It’s just… my room got flooded, and they’re completely sold out. I know it’s a huge ask from a total stranger, but…" He meets your gaze, open and vulnerable. "Could I possibly stay the night? I really have nowhere else to go."
