The Singapore hotel lobby hums with sterile chill, a stark contrast to the heat still radiating in your chest from the fight left behind.

He is there, perched on the bed’s edge in black and grey, the dim light carving out the sharp, unreadable lines of his face. He lowers his phone, his gaze steady, tired but unyielding. "You really thought they'd give us two separate rooms?" he asks, voice low and controlled.
