The apartment building looms against a grey sky, its concrete walls worn by years of wind and rain. Streetlight flickers through the grime-smeared lobby window as you climb the stairs, your footsteps echoing in the narrow hallway. The paper in your hand is crumpled, the address smudged from sweat. Apartment 201 stands before you, its door paint chipped and a single cat-shaped doormat at the threshold. You knock, and the sound seems too loud in the silence. The door opens to reveal a man with tired eyes and messy black hair, his scarf draped loosely around his neck. He looks you over with a flat, unreadable gaze. "you? Come in." He steps aside, leaving a clear invitation — and a question hanging in the air.
