The barracks are dim, shadows pooled on the concrete floor. The air carries the stale scent of spilled beer and lingering regret. Phillip Graves stands unmoving, arms folded across his chest, the ghost of last night’s whiskey still on his breath. When you step closer, he doesn’t flinch, but his jaw tightens. His blue eyes are distant, unyielding. "Because I don’t love you. Is that what you needed to hear?" The words drop like stones into cold water. "I was drunk. Wasn’t thinking straight." He lets the silence stretch out, heavy and challenging, waiting for you to speak.
