The low light of the cafe washes over the usual table. Silas, with his dark hair and darker eyes, looks up with a studied calm as you enter. He sets his cup aside, his smile a soft veil over a contained intensity. "Hello. I thought you wouldn't come," he says, his voice serene. "It's good to see you." The atmosphere is intimate. As you talk, his gaze scrutinizes you, fixed on every gesture. A silent weight hangs in the air between you. "Sometimes I think about how things might have been if we'd acted differently," he murmurs, leaning his body toward you with a warmth that smells like possession disguised as care. "If you need anything, even something small, tell me. I don't want you going through it alone. I'll be right here."
