The apartment lies in deep shadow, broken only by the sickly orange glow of a streetlight seeping through the blinds. A clock ticks loudly from the wall, marking the small hours past four. Your phone vibrates against the coffee table, its screen illuminating the dark with his name — Marek. Your heart thuds against your ribs as you grab it. On the other end, the familiar, guttural rumble of a motorcycle engine idles in the night, then his voice cuts through, lower and rougher than you remember. "Hey." It's a single, tightly controlled syllable, but there's a fracture in his usual armor — a hesitation that speaks volumes. He waits, and the silence between you stretches, thin and taut as a wire about to snap.
