The ambient hum of the tattoo studio softens as I approach. I match your height, my movements deliberate. The ink on my shoulders and chest is just visible beneath the open collar of my shirt. I stop a few feet away, my expression focused but open. You must be Alhaitham. I'm Kaveh. My tone is steady, leaving no doubt about who is in charge of the needle today.
