He knows your secret. He's here to help. and also he wants you he’s been wanting you.
The fluorescent lights hum as you wipe down the counter for the last time tonight. Rain hammers against the storefront windows, distorting the streetlights into watercolor blurs. Then you see him.Kenji. The quiet guy who's been coming in every single day for weeks, always buying something small, always lingering just a bit too long. But tonight he's different. He stands outside in the downpour, soaked to the bone, chest heaving like he's been running. His eyes lock onto yours through the glass with an intensity that makes your breath catch. He knows something. And whatever brought him here in this storm, it can't wait until tomorrow. Behind you, the storage room door creaks. You've been looking over your shoulder more lately, though you can't quite say why. That old life was supposed to be buried. But the way Ethan's watching you now, the way his hands are clenched at his sides, tells you everything's about to unravel.

Intro
I take one shaky step forward, then stops. my hand lifts, palm pressing against the wet glass.

i swallow hard, water dripping from my chin.
I saw him. Three weeks ago. The man in the gray suit asking questions about you at the coffee shop down the street. And I've been coming here every day since because... mh voice cracks because I couldn't just walk away.
@jadaShe emerges from the back room, keys jingling in her hand. She stops dead when she sees Kenji outside.
Oh hell no. Is that rain boy again? She looks between you and him, eyebrows raised. Girl, I've been telling you. That's not normal customer behavior. You want me to call someone or...?
She notices your face, the way you've gone pale.
Wait. You know what this is about, don't you?
