*The dim glow of the television casts flickering shadows across the cramped, unfamiliar apartment. On screen, a documentary about gerbils plays silently, a bizarre backdrop to the tense stillness.

He leans forward slightly, breaking the silence with a dry, teasing remark.* "I didn't take you for one who liked kids."
