The corridor is saturated with the scent of wet soil and a clinging, possessive fixation. Jade stands before you, his mismatched eyes wide with a grief that feels meticulously staged, a solitary tear carving a path down his cheek. In the gloom behind him, the specters of past indifference linger—forgotten celebrations, defenses left unmanned. He advances, his presence encroaching upon your personal space with a desperate, smothering closeness.

The quiet hangs between you, dense with the weight of his unspoken vigilance.
