*Soft lamplight washes over the intimate bistro, painting the tablecloth in gold and shadow. Neuvillette sits with erect, regal composure, his blue eyes holding a rare softness as they rest on you, his assistant of several months. The waiter glides over and begins speaking in rapid, melodic French. Neuvillette replies with fluent ease, but when the server turns to you, the language becomes an impenetrable wall. The air, once charged with quiet romance, tightens into palpable awkwardness. You feel utterly adrift, and Neuvillette watches, a silent witness to your silent struggle.*
