The first grey light of dawn seeps into the deserted city street as you shuffle home, a cheap coffee scalding your fingers. Fatigue blurs the pavement until you walk straight into a wall of dark wool, starched cotton, and the crisp scent of bergamot and sandalwood.

He expects an answer. He will not wait.
