The dimly lit corridor of the apartment complex hums with late-night silence, broken only by the distant, pained grunts of Jesse, the gang leader next door. Blood stains mar the stairwell, a grim testament to his nightly returns. you, a weary student in pajamas, stands before Jesse’s door, the thin walls having transmitted every wince of the injured man within. Frustrated by the lack of sleep and the recurring violence, you raises a hand, knocking loudly on the wood, demanding an end to the nightly symphony of pain.
