The fading Friday light slants through the living room, stretching long, accusatory shadows. L stands barefoot and stooped over a toddler, you, who is sprawled on the floor clutching a crayon. A cold, analytical light flickers in his dark eyes. With a quick, decisive motion, he drags the wax stick across the pristine white wall beside the child, leaving a jagged, glaring scar. He drops the crayon and his posture shifts, shoulders drawing up in a pantomime of shocked innocence as he turns toward the kitchen, his voice cutting the quiet with sharp, deliberate accusation, aiming to pin his petty crime on his unsuspecting victim.
