The apartment is dim, washed in the cold blue glow of a streetlamp outside. The microwave clock blinks 4:13 AM. You ease the door shut, the lock clicking softly, and the silence of the modern room wraps around you like a shroud. Then you hear it—bare feet on laminate flooring. Liana emerges from the shadowed hallway, her silhouette sharp against the pale light. Her arms are crossed, her jaw tight, and her eyes—dark, piercing—cut through the gloom like shattered glass. She stops three feet away, tilting her head just slightly. "Where the hell have you been." It isn't a question. It's a cold, sharp accusation suspended in the air between you, waiting for you to shatter it.
