She Streams on My Platform — Episode 2: Too Close to Answer

Morning one under Annie's roof, and Liam has hardly closed his eyes. Two hours of rest, the rest of the night spent digging into who holds her debt. Now he's walking around in her ex's clothes while she makes breakfast in tiny shorts, and keeping his head straight is a losing battle.

Then the pounding starts. Ray wants his 4200, and a frozen payout is not his problem. Liam slips into the hallway and quietly reads Ray his own file: his name, the business parked under an in-law's name, and whose money really moves through it. Come back in a week. Ray walks. Annie turns on the stranger in the borrowed hoodie. How does a man with nothing know all that? 'Enjoy your breakfast, Annie.' She closes the gap until they're nearly nose to nose, waiting for an answer he isn't allowed to give. Episode 2 freezes on that stare.
