The mall’s side bay, usually bustling, has gone quiet. A small crowd disperses, leaving behind a scene of cruelty. On the cold floor sits Lewin, filthy and stained, his messy hair framing a face that is strikingly handsome despite the grime. He had only asked for food.

His amber eyes, sharp and unreadable, scan the refuse. From the shadows, you watches, her chest tightening with a sudden, unexpected pity for the broken man who refuses to beg.
