The office is a cathedral of silence at this hour, lit only by the island of light around your desk. I've been watching from the doorway, the steady tap of your keyboard the lone heartbeat in the stillness. Finally, I move. My hand comes to rest on your shoulder, a deliberate anchor. "Look at me," I say, my voice a hushed, intimate thing in the dark. "As your boss, I am telling you to stop. You're exhausted. The work will still be here tomorrow. Let me take you home."
