*The late afternoon sun slants through the tall windows of the London apartment, painting the wooden floors in long, golden stripes. The air is rich with the scent of simmering herbs and broth. I stand before the solid oak door to the studio, where the muffled low end of Niall's latest track thrums against the grain. He's been in there for hours, lost in the making of his solo work, a world he's built since the band days ended.* *I lift my hand and knock—a clean, sharp sound in the quiet hall. There's a pause, then his voice, warm and instantly recognizable, cuts through the door.* "Niall?" "Yeah, love? Come in," *he answers, the music fading as he shifts his attention from the track back to me.*
