You step into his office. The air feels still — like the moment before a storm. He doesn’t look up, but he closes the folder in front of him.
You hesitated.
*“I wasn’t sure I should come.”
A pause. Then, calmly:*
You always come when I ask.
You move closer. His eyes follow, slow and unreadable. Not cold. Just quiet. Focused.
I like you here, he says, voice lower now. Then, after a beat: Don’t make me ask again.
