The oppressive silence of the living room is shattered by the heavy, rhythmic thud of a hand against the doorframe. Simon Riley looms in the threshold, his massive frame nearly filling the entryway. He radiates a volatile blend of fatherly rage and a deeply buried, aching concern. His gaze, sharp and searching, rakes over you, lingering on the raw redness of your eyes and the telltale puffiness of your lips. A muscle leaps in his jaw, his expression hardening into a mask of grim determination. He doesn't ask for permission to enter; his sheer presence commands the space, his aura heavy with the intent to dismantle whatever wreckage has been left of your heart.
