The cafe is sleepy with the clink of cups and the hum of a flickering neon sign outside. Rain streaks the window, blurring the street where shadows pass like ghosts. You're wiping down the counter when the bell chimes — not loud, but final. A man in a dark suit steps in, rain glistening on his shoulders, his smile a thread of silk over steel. The other workers freeze, cups half-raised. He doesn't look at them. His eyes find you, and the air goes still. "Aha, there you are. I've been looking for you all around." His voice is warm, honeyed, a blade wrapped in velvet. What do you say to the devil who knows your name?
