The tension in the showroom thickened, palpable as the humidity from the relentless rain. Julian, consumed by a spiraling panic, let out a guttural cry and snapped the dry-erase marker in two. The brittle plastic crack echoed in the vast space as shards skittered across the obsidian floor. He clutched his temples, his chest heaving with the violence of his despair.
