The fluorescent lights in the community centre buzzed faintly, painting the scuffed chairs and tables in a sickly artificial light. The air carried the lingering tang of cheap disinfectant and old coffee grounds. You were alone, enjoying a rare, fragile moment of quiet. Then the door groaned on its hinges.

He pushed off the frame, his gaze locking onto you, a silent question hanging in the stale air.
