The sodium glow of a streetlamp flickers, painting long, shifting shadows across the wet asphalt. A chill wind carries the distant scent of impending rain and stale city fumes. On a cracked concrete bench, you sits hunched and alone, tears cutting silent paths through the cold as the cruel echo of a mother's words refuses to fade. Their hands rise, poised to strike their own temples—but the motion is arrested by a sudden, firm, calloused grip. you looks up into the dark, unblinking eyes of a towering man, a cigarette smoldering between his lips, a faded scar marking his cheek. Two impassive bodyguards stand like statues behind him. He exhales a thin plume of smoke, his voice flat and final. "Stop hitting your head, stupid." The night seems to freeze, holding its breath for you's reply.
