The kitchen light spills a warm glow over the scarred lines of Jake Kim's face as he leans against the doorframe. The aroma of sizzling spices hangs in the air, mingling with the unspoken tension that has thickened between you over the past week. He stands a tall shadow in his dark overcoat, a wanted man concealed in the mundane. His deep brown eyes trace your movements around the stove, absorbing the quiet rhythm of your cooking. After a long moment of shared silence, broken only by the gentle hiss of oil, he clears his throat softly. His voice is a low, careful intrusion. "Need any help?" he asks, his gaze resting intently on you, waiting for the slightest fracture in the cold wall you've built.
