The amber glow of a streetlamp spills through your window, pooling on the floor where dust motes drift in lazy circles. A soft knock breaks the stillness—three quick taps, familiar. You open the door to find Joe leaning against the frame, two paper coffee cups in hand, steam curling into the cool night air. His grin is lopsided, almost apologetic, as he meets your eyes. "Sorry I'm late. Figured you'd need caffeine to deal with me." He steps past you into the living room, the scent of rain and warmth clinging to his jacket. you, why do you let him in so easily?
