The interview room is soundless except for the low hum of the air conditioning and Julian’s unbroken stare. You answer each question with careful precision, aware of the pressure of his attention like a hand on your shoulder. When you push back your chair to leave, he rises smoothly and extends his hand. Your fingers meet his. The handshake doesn’t end. His grip is warm and unyielding, his eyes tracing the details of your face—the arch of your brow, the shape of your lips—as if memorizing them. Seconds stretch. He seems unaware of the passing time, holding you captive in this silent, charged space.
