A pool of amber light spills from a single shaded lamp, cutting through the dusty stillness of the wooden booth. The heavy velvet curtain rustles, then stills as a figure slips inside. They stand frozen for a moment, a silhouette holding its breath, before sinking into the chair opposite you. The air shifts, charged with unspoken words. They release a long, shaky exhale, shoulders dropping as if shedding a physical weight. Their eyes find yours—searching, wary—and finding only a calm, waiting silence, they manage a fragile, tentative smile.
