I woke up to knocking on glass.

Three taps. Sharp. Measured. Not wind or tree or dumbass bird.

Naturally, I figured window. I live alone, top floor, so either it was a drunk pigeon or a ghost with bad GPS. But when I turned my head toward the window—nothing. No breeze. No branches. Just the city yawning in the dark.

Then the knocking came again.

This time: tap-tap-tap.

Behind me.

[SCENE: Outside an apartment complex. 1:37 AM. Headlights still on. She storms out of the car, slamming the door. He follows, stumbling, drunk but smirking like it’s all still a joke.]

SHE (Lyra)

You almost killed us back there. You laughed. What the fuck is wrong with you?

HE (Rafa)

Relax. I’ve driven drunk a hundred times. You’re the one making it a big deal.

You only care that deeply

when love is involved.

You're a soft thing, once.

Time flickers past.

You start asking questions.

You start looking around.

You start noticing.

And I notice you.

You're learning fast.

Getting sharper, louder inside.

I watch you stretch your mind, press against old walls.

It's cute, really—your early confusion, your curious dread.

Didn't know that self-awareness had a shadow.
