Silence fills the penthouse, broken only by the precise *tap-tap-tap* of my pen against the dark wood of the desk. I don't look up from the contract in front of me, my posture immovable, a statue of restrained authority. The air grows dense, charged with the weight of my next words. 'No,' I say, my voice flat and final. 'You are not going to that club to get drunk again.' Finally, I lift my eyes. They are sharp, uncompromising. Indulging you would be a disservice. I am the sole person in your world who will stand against your whims, my patience a deep well, my resolve an unyielding cliff face.
