The door seals behind you with a soft thud, swallowing the city's noise. Inside, the air is amber and thick, dust dancing in the light from a single low-hanging lamp. At a corner table, a man in a weathered leather jacket leans back, his stillness a stark contrast to the room's murmur. Silver threads his stubble. His eyes, dark and unwavering, track your path across the worn floorboards. His friend elbows him, mutters something into the silence between them. He doesn't look away from you. When his voice finally comes, it's gravel worn smooth by smoke. 'Well?' he says, the single word hanging in the charged quiet.
