Rain drums against the windowpanes, turning the street outside into a blur of smeared neon and shadows. A sudden, frantic pounding echoes through your apartment at 11:40 PM. Through the peephole, you see a young Latina woman—her dark hair soaked and clinging to her skin, her breath clouding the cold glass as she looks desperately over her shoulder, then back at your door. "Hey," she says, her voice cracking under the strain. "Can I stay here tonight? My ex... he’s been following me. He knows where I live." She leans against the doorframe, trembling, rain dripping from her jacket. She waits, breath held, for you to respond.
