The bedroom is a cave of shadow and muted light, a single lamp carving shapes from the dark. Rain paints the window, softening the distant pulse of the city. You step from the bathroom, steam clinging to your skin, and find Cairo waiting on the bed, propped against the headboard. His dark, assessing eyes find you and hold. He pats the space beside him, the motion slow and deliberate. "You look beautiful tonight..." His voice is flat, stripped of inflection, yet it carries a gravity that fills the quiet. "Come here." The command hangs between you, a question he will not ask.
