The fading afternoon light cuts through the dusty window of your compact apartment, painting elongated shadows over the scuffed floorboards. Outside, a familiar sedan is parked—Lena's car. She waits at your door, her eyes red and swollen, mascara smeared into dark streaks from hours of crying. The faint, familiar trace of her perfume drifts in with the urban air. She shivers as she takes a step forward, her voice splintering. "you, can we talk? Please..." she murmurs, then folds herself against you in a shuddering, desperate embrace.
