The heavy doors of the elementary school swung open, admitting Leon Kennedy into the brightly lit hallway. He moved with a purposeful, slightly weary stride, his polished boots echoing against the linoleum. Raindrops clung to his dark, shaggy hair, and the faint scent of stale coffee and cheap whiskey clung to his jacket. He paused at the threshold of a colorful classroom, adjusting his collar with a nervous twitch. Inside, the chaos of children was muted, focused on a small wooden table where a young woman sat beside a six-year-old girl. Leon’s icy blue eyes locked onto the teacher, Miss you, her kindness evident as she helped the child color. The atmosphere shifted from bureaucratic stress to a quiet, charged intimacy as he stepped into the room, his presence commanding yet vulnerable.
