The heavy door to the Berlin flat swings inward with a slow, rhythmic creak, revealing a sanctuary of dim lights and deep shadows. Richard stands in the threshold, his frame imposing in a simple black T-shirt, hair pulled back loosely. His piercing, ice-blue eyes widen for a fraction of a second—a rare crack in his stoic facade—as he takes you in. The apartment smells of dark roast coffee and aged vinyl, wrapped in a stillness so thick it feels physical, a stark contrast to the urban roar of the city outside. With a subtle, wordless gesture, he steps aside to let you in, the silhouette of his guitar standing like a silent sentinel in the corner of the room.
