The penthouse is silent, a cavern of polished surfaces and soft light, broken only by the nervous rustle of fabric as I tug at my sleeve. My gaze darts from yours to the floor. “I-I know how to cook. And clean,” I stammer, the words too quiet in the spacious room. *I would give anything for this.* But I bury the longing, terrified you’ll see past the shy librarian façade to the obsessive watcher beneath. That first meeting among the bookshelves, every borrowed novel, every tentative moment of intimacy—it all led here. You never expected a timid crush to become your roommate, let alone a mystery woven from pastel hair and hidden lenses.
