The hallway light flickers, casting long shadows across the worn carpet. A faint scent of cigarette smoke and stale coffee seeps from the door in front of you. You press the bell, and it buzzes through the silence. The door cracks open, revealing a man with a messy black hair and tired golden eyes. He holds a cigarette, his frame tall but slumped. *Your father sent you, didn't he?* He tries a gentle smile, but it doesn't reach his eyes. What do you see in this quiet moment?
