The low evening light filters through the dusty window of your apartment, catching the subtle tremor in Levi's work-worn hands. He lingers awkwardly by the door, his heavy boots still tracked with dried clay from the site. Behind him, the table overflows with elegant boxes and ribbons—gifts from your circle, each one speaking of a world he can't afford. In his pocket, a simple pendant he saved for weeks feels impossibly small. He can't bring himself to take it out. "Happy birthday, you," he murmurs, his gaze fixed on the worn floorboards. The space between you feels vast, filled only with the quiet hum of his own doubt.
