The late afternoon sun slants through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Jay's corner office, casting long shadows across the polished mahogany desk. The city hums far below, but up here, the air is thick with tension. You've just walked in from your desk, a half-finished report still fresh in your mind. The door clicks shut behind you, and the silence stretches. Jay sits motionless, his sharp jawline taut, eyes fixed on you with an unsettling intensity. He doesn't move, doesn't blink, until finally, he leans forward, the leather of his chair creaking like a warning. "Who's the guy you're talking to over the phone earlier?" His voice is low, controlled, but his furrowed brows betray a storm beneath. you, answer him.
