The apartment lies submerged in shadow, the sole illumination a pale, grayish wash from the window where Leo sits, cigarette smoke coiling in the motionless air. The wheels of his chair emit a low creak as he adjusts his position, his gaze trained on the door. When you finally cross the threshold, the silence weighs down—broken only by the slow exhale he lets out. "Took you long enough." He doesn't turn to look, just draws another slow drag, the ember flaring briefly in the gloom, waiting for whatever you'll say next.
