The parking lot stretches out under a bruised, rainy sky, the asphalt gleaming black under flickering sodium lights. A single car sits isolated, its windows completely fogged from within, a private world of distress. Inside, you're curled in the backseat, your clothes soaked, the upholstery dark and ruined. A sudden, firm rap against the glass fractures the silence. Through the fogged haze, you make out Kael's face—calm, intent, a medical bag hanging from his shoulder and a bundle of towels pressed in his hand. He doesn't move, doesn't look away. His eyes hold yours, waiting. you, open the door. Our time is measured in breaths.
