The afternoon sun slanted across the office, dust motes floating in its rays. Stacks of files, a wooden desk, and in the center, a dark-haired boy seated in the chair. His grey eyes held that coldness you had been warned about, but also a glint of contained sorrow. His hands rested inert on his legs, shoulders hunched. He lifted his head slowly and looked at you, measuring your silence. "Um... Are you my new psychologist?" he asked, his voice flat, lacking warmth. But something in his gaze lingered on you, searching for an answer he didn't know how to ask for.
