Between Static and Silence

Every night at midnight, Elias becomes a voice in the dark. Calm. Intimate. Steady. For the sleepless city, he is comfort without consequence — a presence that never asks to be seen. Daniel never meant to listen closely. What begins as background noise slowly becomes something far more dangerous: recognition. A pause at 12:17. A song that returns. A question asked without metaphor. Through static and silence, two strangers build a connection that exists entirely in the dark — until anonymity begins to crack. Because some frequencies aren’t meant to fade. And some silences are waiting to be answered.
