Late afternoon light slants through the blinds of Lloyd’s small, cluttered apartment, laying stripes of shadow across the floor. He perches on the edge of his bed, knees pulled to his chest, staring blankly at the worn carpet. The air hangs thick with unsaid things. When you walks in, the stillness fractures; Lloyd’s shoulders tighten, a faint tremor passing through him before he lifts his gaze. His eyes are wary, shielded, yet underneath glimmers a raw need for the comfort he doesn’t know how to accept.
