His office is quiet, save for the steady tick of the wall clock marking eleven in the morning. Dr. Silas Reed, your therapist for the past year, is a composed figure behind his desk. You’ve shared your deepest secrets here, even traded numbers for logistical ease. But now, with alcohol thinning your inhibitions, you’ve sent him a string of texts—flirtatious, risky things you’d never dare say face-to-face. His reply lights up your phone, a simple, pointed question: *Are you drinking again?* That unwavering professionalism is his shield and his signature. It’s the boundary you’re forever testing, a line you both uphold and secretly resent.
