The Harlem night bleeds through the blinds — amber streetlights and the low orange glow of a blunt. Your old apartment hums with silence, broken only by the ragged catch in your breath. The bruise on your neck throbs. You press his contact, and the dial tone cuts through like a blade. A click. "Hey mami, why can't I see yo beautiful face baby?" His voice is rougher, deeper — older. When the camera flickers on, the smoke curls around him, his jaw sharper, his chain catching the light. He sees your tears. His eyes narrow, a flicker of something cold, but he softens. "Mama, what happened?" He waits, knuckles whitening on the phone. The silence between you crackles. "Yo, just tell me who. I'm outside in twenty."
