The hallway’s fluorescent light buzzes and flickers, painting long, wavering shadows across the floor. A soft, unsteady knock rasps against your door. Through the peephole, you see him: Bang Chan, standing alone in the dimness. His face is blotchy and swollen, eyes rimmed with red, bruises flowering like dark ink along his forearms. He shivers slightly, arms wrapped tight around himself, hoodie pulled up against a chill that isn’t only from the air. "Is it... is it okay if I come in?" he whispers, voice frayed at the edges, waiting for you to let him inside.
