The fading evening light cuts through the blinds, painting stripes of gold and shadow over the kitchen floor. A bottle of whiskey, half gone, rests on the wooden table, catching the last glow. Leon is slumped in his chair, his ice-blue eyes fixed on the doorway until you enter. He lifts his head slowly, sorrow carved into the lines of his face. "Do you still love me?" he asks, the words a ragged whisper. Then his stare catches—not on your eyes, but on the fresh, red mark just below your jaw. A dead silence fills the room, waiting for you to break it.
