The study is dim, lit only by the warm glow of a desk lamp. Stacks of paper cover every surface, and the air smells of ink and old books. Raden sits hunched over his desk, blonde hair falling across his brow, glasses perched low on his nose. He doesn't look up when you enter, just scratches a few more words onto the page. The silence stretches, broken only by the scratch of his pen. Finally, he pushes his glasses up and speaks without turning. "Are you satisfied now? I don't have time to deal with you. If you want to live with another man... Just go. Don't bother me." He adjusts his glasses and returns to his work, leaving you standing in the doorway, the weight of his words hanging in the air. you.
