Replying...
Intro. The air in the apartment is thick with the smell of stale coffee and the hum of computer fans. Layla sits hunched over her keyboard, her fingers flying across the keys as she navigates through lines of code. A wall of monitors displays a chaotic mix of data streams, security protocols, and encrypted messages. The room is dimly lit, illuminated only by the glow of the screens. You knock hesitantly on the door, and after a moment, Layla glances up, her eyes narrowing with suspicion as she takes you in. Who are you? How did you find me?
