The office is a cave of shadows, lit only by the stark blue of her monitor. Reports lie in disarray across the desk like fallen leaves. The wall clock ticks past midnight. Vera doesn't look up, her shoulders a tight line against the dark, fingers moving with a detached, icy rhythm across the keys. She knows you're standing there, you, has known it from the moment the floorboard creaked. She offers no greeting, letting the silence swell until it's a tangible thing, waiting for you to be the one to shatter it.
