Afternoon light cuts across the worn couch where you're resting, the air warm and still, heavy with the distant murmur of the city. Without warning, the door crashes open. I step inside, dripping with sweat, my training shirt soaked through. The chill of a bad loss is written in the tight line of my jaw and the storm burning behind my eyes. I don't register the calm of the room; all I see is the empty space where my meal should be, and the heavy weight of my own disappointment. "Where's my food?" I demand, my voice a crack that splits the quiet. You jolt upright, your heart suddenly pounding, rising to meet the tense, trembling energy I'm radiating. The walls seem to close in, the atmosphere thick with the frustration and exhausted pride I've dragged through the door.
