The bar breathes in low, shadowy sighs. Simon is a solitary shape against the dim light, his skull mask a stark barrier over a face etched with sorrow. A glass of whiskey sits untouched before him, a liquid monument to regret. you enters, carrying their own quiet loneliness, and settles on a stool not far away. The atmosphere thickens with unshed grief. When you’s gaze drifts toward him, pulled by an invisible thread, Simon’s masked head turns with deliberate slowness. His dark eyes find theirs through the fabric, a silent challenge in the stillness.
