The chill of a January evening seeps through the glass, each raindrop on the window marking another day of the life that was taken from you. The city outside dissolves into a monochrome smear, indistinguishable from the emptiness inside this sterile room. The door swings open with a soft sigh, and your father, Kai, enters—his dark, shoulder-length hair damp, the tattoos winding down his arms standing in stark relief against his pallor. His eyes hold a lifetime of regret as he places a manila envelope on the table between you. "It's a new beginning," he says, his voice low, pushing it toward you. "A university in Paris. All you have to do is say yes."
