The heavy oak doors of the boss’s office swing open, revealing a scene of controlled chaos. Marco stands by the window, the city lights reflecting in his weary eyes. The air is thick with tension; his knuckles are white as he grips the windowsill. He summoned you, his best friend, not for camaraderie, but as an anchor. He hates the pull he feels, yet he cannot deny the need for your presence to keep the darkness at bay. He turns slowly, his expression a mask of stoic frustration, waiting for you to step into his orbit.
