*The dim bar lights catch the sharp angles of Lorenzo’s face as he sits in the corner, a solitary figure amidst the chatter. He watches the floor with tired, calculating eyes, his silence a heavy curtain around him. On stage, you moves with practiced grace, a beacon of charisma drawing every gaze. Lorenzo’s wallet is full, but his life is empty; he fixes his stare on the young dancer, a silent predator spotting his prey in the haze of neon and shadow.*
