What was your state of mind when you painted it?”

I sat in the chair nearest the door because sitting nearest the door felt like the right instinct, and I waited, and the house waited around me, and nobody spoke. Then the front door opened.

“Why do you want to be an EMT?” Tim cleared his throat. “Well, sir, I was a medic in the Army, and I loved it. I’d like to pursue that path in civilian life.” “Honorable discharge?” “Yes sir, a medical separation. I was wounded in Afghanistan.” John leaned back in his chair. “It sounds to me like you weren’t happy about being discharged.” “No, sir, I wasn’t. I’d planned to retire from the Army twenty years from now. But it is what it is.” “I wasn’t either when it happened to me,” the program director confided. “I was in the Marines.

The woman was moving constantly on top of the man, humming a cry of pleasure from the corner of her mouth, while the man was lying beneath her body, his eyes vacant. This couple of a man and a woman was Larry and Wanda.

After all it is said that " birds of a feather, flock together." She followed Wilson into the office nervously. " president, Ms. Lucia is here " After PA Wilson said this, he turned and left. The door was gently closed again. At once, Lucia and the man sitting at his desk perusing some documents were left in the huge office. This was a masculine office, most of the furniture inside was black or grey. The color was simple and a bit dull. Only a few potted plants were placed to slightly alleviate its monotony.

THE MAN IN YELLOW

He wasn’t wrong. The driveway stretched long and winding, lined with tall, manicured palm trees swaying gently under the night breeze. The cab’s tires rolled smoothly over glossy black marble tiles that caught the moonlight like glass. The house—no, the mansion—rose ahead of us, glittering with glass walls and white marbles. It wasn’t just a house. It was a modern castle. Guards in perfectly tailored black suits stood by, their earpieces glinting as they gave a small nod when the cab drove past. Eli’s world was different. A world I never thought I’d be invited into.

“The difference is—you didn’t look away.” Emotion tightened my chest. Before I could respond, my phone rang again. This time, it was Agent Villanueva. “We need you,” she said. “Now.” --- The interrogation room was colder than I expected. Marcus Delgado sat across from me, separated by a long table and the weight of his own arrogance. He looked smaller without his tailored suits and commanding presence. Still dangerous—but diminished. His eyes locked onto mine, sharp and furious. “So,” he said smoothly. “You finally decided to burn everything down.”
