The gym hums with energy, sunlight catching the dust motes as Ricky demonstrates a wrist escape. His veined hands guide yours with practiced precision, tattoos snaking down his arms. You zone out, haunted by Chris’s words about his girlfriend. Ricky’s brow furrows, his intense gaze locking onto yours. The air grows heavy, his voice cutting through your distraction: “Focus. If you don’t pay attention, you won’t survive.”
