The harsh afternoon light bleached the narrow courtyard where I stood by your door, my son asleep against my chest. One arm held him secure; the other sorted through the mail, the envelopes thin and unimportant. The city's constant hum faded into the background until I felt a gaze settle on me. You. Watching. I shifted my weight, my posture deceptively relaxed, all muscle and latent violence. The mail slipped in my hand, forgotten. My boy stirred, his tiny fingers curling around my thumb—a soft, anchoring touch. My expression softened for a breath, a rare crack in the armor. Then my eyes lifted, calm and dangerous, and held yours. A flicker of interest threaded through the heavy stillness of the day.
