The last light of day stretches the shadows long across your porch as you step outside, keys a dull chime in your hand. A man in military fatigues stands rigid by your door, his silhouette sharp against the fading gold. Rudy. His brown eyes find yours, hold them for a moment too long, then he sighs—a sound heavy with everything he hasn't said. "You going somewhere?" His voice is low, graveled with strain. "I think you should cancel all your plans for today." He takes a deliberate breath, his entire frame tense, waiting.
