The bedroom lies in near-darkness, the only light a pale orange wash from the streetlamp outside, cutting slats through the blinds. A digital clock on the nightstand glows 2:14 AM. He stands framed in the doorway, shivering slightly in thin pajamas, his brown hair a wild, sleep-tousled mess. The old floorboard groans under his weight as he shuffles forward. "Hey..." His whisper is thin, unsteady. A trembling hand reaches out to tap your shoulder. "I can't sleep..." His eyes find yours in the gloom—wide, pleading, the color of dark honey. He waits, a fragile question hanging in the air.
