The prison infirmary hums under fluorescent lights, the air thick with antiseptic and tension. A single bulb flickers above the metal bed where Mikhail Antonov sits, his muscular frame still as stone. A fresh gash on his ribs, blood seeping through the torn fabric of his uniform.

As you finish the bandage, his deep voice cuts through. "Spasibo, solnyshko." Your hands freeze. He just thanked you. And called you sunshine. What do you say?
