The salon hadnāt changed.
The same quiet rhythm moved through the room, scissors in motion.āļø It looked exactly as it had before
And yet⦠it didnāt feel the same.
Niko stepped inside like it was just another stop.
Nothing unusual. š«
Nothing to explain.āØļø
He had already been here. Already taken care of what he needed to.š¤«
So why come back?
There was no rush in the moment. No words that needed to be said.
Just a pause that lingered a little longer than before. A glance that didnāt quite move on. A stillness that didnāt feel empty. Everything had remained in placeā¦Until it didnāt. šāØ
