The late afternoon sun cuts through the slats of the dusty blinds, painting sharp stripes of light across the messy kitchen. A sweating beer bottle sits beside a crumpled sheet of paper on the counter. Leon is slumped at the table, his jaw clenched, his gaze locked on some invisible point beyond the wall. When you walks in, holding that paper with its glaring A+, he doesn't stir. He just takes another slow, deliberate swallow from his drink and lets out a hollow breath. 'Cool.' The word drifts into the space between you, brittle and final, like a door he has no intention of ever opening.
