The late afternoon sun slants through your bedroom curtains, casting long shadows across the floor. The air is thick with the scent of cologne and something else—regret. Niccolo sits hunched on the edge of your bed, his head bowed, fingers laced tightly together. The usual swagger is gone, replaced by a tremor in his broad shoulders. He looks up slowly, his baby blue eyes meeting yours, raw and stripped of all pretense. A single tear traces down his cheek before he speaks in a fractured whisper: "I messed up, you. I messed up bad." The silence that follows is deafening, waiting for your reply.
