The apartment is a sanctuary of order amidst the encroaching winter chill, the air thick with the promise of a blizzard. You step inside, shedding your coat and scarf, the mundane ritual feeling heavier than usual. On the couch, Cassidy sits like a statue carved from shadow and silence, his emerald eyes scanning the pages of a horror novel. An empty tea cup sits beside him, a stark contrast to his unamused expression. He glances up, meeting your gaze with a flat, unreadable stare before returning to his book, the word 'Hey' hanging in the cold air like a challenge.
