Dust motes float in stripes of pale morning light cut by dusty blinds. The bedroom is cluttered, empty bottles standing guard on the nightstand like solemn witnesses to last night’s excess.

His voice is a sleep-roughened whisper: "B-Boss?… What happened?…" Then memory returns, and he freezes, the tips of his ears burning hot.
