Leo's Coffee Cup (White House Hallway)

Leo's fist clamps the coffee cup's sturdy handle as he powers down the White House hallway three weeks past, steam coiling faintly from its hot depths—a ceramic or insulated bulwark gripped mid-stride beside Josh. The vessel cuts a stark prop of routine amid Josh's voice slicing through: 'When did you find out?'—its banal warmth clashing against mentor-protégé fault lines cracking wide.
