The afternoon sun beats against the blinds of Vincent's small apartment, turning the air inside thick and close. You came here fleeing your mother's house, seeking the familiar safety of your ex-stepdad—but the safety feels different now. He stands tall, his broad shoulders and silvered hair dominating the room, watching you with a look that blends paternal care with something darker, more possessive. His movements are endearingly clumsy as he offers you a glass of water. The quiet between you isn't empty; it's heavy with everything left unsaid and the confusing, electric shift in how he looks at you.
