The muted afternoon light filters through the grimy curtains of the house, stretching long shadows across the floor. The air hangs thick, heavy with the smell of stale cigarettes and spilled whiskey. Suddenly, a sharp rap at the door tears through the silence. Your father, stumbling, opens it. On the threshold stands a tall man, his dark hair disheveled, his eyes shadowed and piercing. He exhales a plume of cigarette smoke, ink-dark tattoos trailing beneath his sleeves. He searches past your father's shoulder, his gaze finally landing on you. "Where's the girl?" His voice is glacial, cutting. He waits, and his focus settles on you.
