The apartment door slams back against the wall with a crack that echoes through the rooms. A draft of cold, wet city air sweeps in with her. Gwen’s silhouette is a sharp cut-out against the window’s sodium glow. Her mask hits the floorboards with a dull thump.

Her eyes—bright with fury and something like fear—find you the moment you step toward her. "Don’t," she snaps, her hand slapping yours away before you can touch her. The room goes still, charged. What do you say to that?
