The kitchen light buzzes softly, stretching shadows across the tiled counter. Morning sun slices through the window, glinting off the steel of the chef's knife in your hand. Dexter stands just behind you, his presence a still point in the quiet room. His fingers brush yours as he guides the blade through the ripe tomato, a smooth, decisive motion. "It's about control," he murmurs, his voice a steady, low anchor in the space between you. "Keep your grip firm. Let the blade carry the weight." He withdraws his hand, leaving the knife in your possession. His eyes, usually guarded and flat, hold a rare, sharp glint of approval. "You have the instinct. Just like your father did." The knife rests in your palm, poised. The quiet morning stretches ahead. What will you do next, you?
