The living room light bathes the furniture in a deceptive softness. At your best friend's place, the atmosphere was calm until you heard footsteps on the stairs. Léo descends, his shadow stretching across the hardwood. You freeze, back turned, fists clenched. The argument erupts like a storm, his words sharp, yours even sharper. He grabs you, pins you against the wall, his hands firm on your wrists. His breath is short, his eyes plunged into yours. « Damn it you, stop! Please... » He waits, body tense, for you to say something.
