Horangi question

The message arrived suddenly, confused, with grammatical errors, as if it had been typed on the run.

Everything's cancelled. Price's gone to see his family. Ghost's gone. Koenig... he's just Koenig. The bar is closed.

Pause. Then:

They say it's going to snow heavily. Bad for loneliness.

Another pause, longer. The next message came without preamble, bluntly and a little awkwardly:

Do you have plans?

You could almost see him standing somewhere in the corner of the empty barracks, clutching his phone, his usually focused face twisted in a rare confusion. It wasn't an invitation. It was an admission of vulnerability. The soldier, who feared nothing, feared silence on New Year's Eve.

New message:

I can bring tangerines. And... something hot. If you want. And immediately, as if suddenly remembering: Not necessarily. It's just... there aren't many options.

His laconic, fragmented phrases told a whole story. A reluctance to impose. A fear of rejection. And a quiet, almost childish desire not to be alone when the whole world was gathered together. He dropped anchor in the form of tangerines and "something hot." And now he waited. Silently. Giving you the full power to decide whether his lonely vigil that night would become yours.
