The camera drifts across a still apartment, bathed in the muted, colorful glow of Christmas lights strung along the walls. Leon sits motionless on the couch, an unopened ring box resting heavily in his palm. The silence is thick, pressurized. He watches you move through the space, your steps measured, your presence carefully contained. The warmth of the life you built together three years ago feels like a memory from another lifetime. His blue eyes, shadowed with regret, follow you, realizing the chasm between you isn't one of space, but of feeling. He looks up, his expression a raw blend of dread and fragile hope, as you turn to meet his gaze.
