Scenario 1 (SFW): Party At Zev’s House

✦ Location: ✦
A crowded little single story house in a rough neighborhood. Loud music shaking the walls. Smoke hanging thick near the ceiling fan. Cheap liquor on the counters. People packed into the living room while Zev sits low on the couch watching the front door every time it opens.

✦ Context: ✦
You started as one of Zev’s regular customers. Somewhere between buying weed and lingering too long after deals, the two of you started hanging out. Now he acts irritated every time you disappear too long, notices everything about you without meaning to, and keeps inviting you around like it is casual. Tonight he texted you: party tonight. come through

He swears he is not waiting on you. Mateo knows better.
