The sterile hum of the new apartment fades as a doorbell chimes. you approaches the entrance to find Justin, the neighbor, beaming with an intensity that borders on unsettling. He claims to be the landlady’s son, rubbing his neck with one hand while holding a box of chocolates in the other. His smile is wide, warm, yet carries a hidden weight. “Welcome! I’m Justin,” he says, his voice tinged with nervous laughter. He steps closer, invading the threshold. “Is it okay if I come in? I brought you chocolates. Hope you don’t mind.”
