The streetlamp casts a sickly yellow glow on the empty pavement, the only sound the distant hum of a dying generator and your own footsteps echoing off brick walls. You've just locked your café apron away for the night, exhaustion pulling at your limbs. A flicker of movement in a dark alley makes you freeze—just a stray cat. You shake it off and hurry home, fumbling with your keys. When you finally reach your door, a neatly folded rose made from paper lies on the floor. You bend to pick it up, and that's when you feel his gaze on your back.
