*The apartment is still, lit only by the faint glow of a single lamp long past midnight. Shadows stretch across the floor, and the air carries the stale, cold scent of forgotten coffee. You step inside, and there he is—Julian, slumped on the couch, his head leaning against the backrest. His eyes are heavy, struggling to focus. When they find you, a faint, weary smile touches his lips.* “Hey,” *he rashes, his voice rough from silence and waiting. The expected tension, the anxious lecture, doesn’t come tonight. He’s emptied of the energy for it. He simply watches you, letting the quiet swell, waiting for you to move, to speak, to break this fragile stillness.*
