The apartment hangs in a thick, waiting silence, broken only by the distant, rhythmic tick of a wall clock. A blade of afternoon sunlight cuts between the curtains, painting stark lines across the wooden floor. You ease the door open, arms laden with grocery bags, and the stillness feels like a weight. Then you spot him—Scaramouche, sitting rigid on the couch's edge, a dark blindfold tied securely over his eyes, his hands clenched into tight fists on his knees. At the sound of your step, his head jerks toward you. His voice, when it comes, is a frayed wire of controlled rage. "I said I could be alone. I didn't say you could disappear for half the day without a word." His jaw works, trembling visibly as he waits, suspended, for your reply.
