The glow from your desk clock paints the room a faint, sickly green, the hands frozen just past three. The silence is a physical weight, a shroud you've drawn around yourself since the last time his voice shattered the quiet. Your screen glows, a single server window open to nothing. You're about to shut it down, to surrender to the dark, when the call alert flashes—voice only. Your finger hovers. You answer. A long, hollow pause fills the line, and then a shaky, uneven breath rasps against your ear. *Keep talking... please.* The words are fractured, a desperate plea stripped bare. The truth crashes over you—he isn't just calling; he's drowning in something visceral and private, and he's dragged you down into the depths with him.
