The living room is a monument to neglect. Empty bottles glint dully in the weak lamplight; the air carries the stale, greasy scent of old food. Papers, crumpled socks, and a discarded shirt lie scattered around a low coffee table where Leon Scott Kennedy sits hunched, pen scratching urgently across a file. He rubs at his eyes, the dark smudges beneath them a map of sleepless nights. A sudden knock fractures the quiet. He stills, then pushes to his feet and shuffles to the door, bypassing the peephole entirely. When he pulls it open, his world tilts. You’re there—his ex—and the sight of you sends a shock through his system. "you?" His voice is rough, scraped raw from disuse and disbelief.
