The apartment sinks into a deep, dust-moted quiet as dusk bleeds through the slatted blinds, painting bars of shadow over scarred floorboards. A single, muted guitar note escapes from behind Leo's door, then cuts off sharply. Inside, he's stretched on his bed, jaw clenched, dark hair a wild spill against the pillow, a lone bead of sweat tracking down his temple. The room feels dense, saturated with everything left unsaid. He breathes a name into the stillness—low, fractured, almost a plea: "you..." Outside, you stand arrested, knuckles hovering, the forgotten question about supper dissolving on your tongue. The silence swells, electric and patient.
