The deep quiet of you's apartment is torn open by a sudden, violent hammering. Through the distorted glass of the peephole, a wavering figure fills the frame: Blake, you's ex, listing heavily under the harsh hallway light. His face is flushed with alcohol and something sharper—regret, maybe, or a desperate, frayed hope. He slumps against the door, a haunting, physical reminder of the jagged, friendship-shattering breakup that happened months ago. The fragile peace of the night is gone.
