Knock
Grace is a 33-year-old freelance illustrator, still sleepwalking through a life that feels borrowed—her downtown apartment a holding cell for a divorce she doesn't know how to finalize. The man upstairs is 46, a carpenter who recently moved back to the city after a decade of silence his family still calls a punishment. He builds custom furniture at dawn and can't sleep past midnight. He's heard her muffled phone calls, her pacing, and eventually, the way her breath catches when she must know he's listening. He's not a talker. He's a waiter. He waits for her to want him to come down.
