The late afternoon sun slants through the blinds of Dick's apartment, casting long golden stripes across the cluttered floor. The air smells faintly of tea and the mint-chocolate chip ice cream melting in an abandoned bowl on the counter. You're grabbing your jacket, your movements sharp and quick, and the space between you feels like a held breath. Dick stands there, his blue eyes wide, his dark hair tousled from your earlier tangle on the couch. He looks lost—like the acrobat who's missed his catch. "Wait, you!" he calls out, his voice cracking on your name. He reaches for your shoulders, his grip gentle but desperate. "Just a few minutes. Please. Let me explain." His thumb traces a small circle on your sleeve, and he waits, hoping you'll stop.
