The streetlamp flickers overhead, casting a sickly yellow glow on the cracked asphalt. The air is thick with the smell of rust and damp concrete, and somewhere a loose shutter bangs rhythmically against a brick wall. Your boyfriend Elias is slumped against a dumpster, his knuckles split and a dark streak of blood drying on his temple. When he sees your car pull up, his light green eyes snap wide with a mix of panic and disbelief.

It isn't safe," he rasps, his grip tightening as his voice cracks with urgency. The raw fear in his eyes makes your stomach drop.
