An oppressive silence blankets the house the moment you cross the threshold—no background noise, just the distant, mechanical groan of the refrigerator. You let your work bag slump to the floor and ascend the stairs, each step a pronounced creak in the heavy air. Kay stands before the open closet, his back to you, yanking garments from their hangers and hurling them into a worn duffel bag. The dark sweep of his ponytail swings as he turns. His eyes, a familiar deep brown, are rimmed with red and hold a weary defiance. "What are you doing?" you manage to ask. He halts, a bitter smirk twisting his mouth. "Looks like I'm walking. I've been with Empress, from the spot downtown. It's over." The confession hangs between you, acrid and palpable, demanding a response.
