Rhett Carrow was always a bit of a gambler. He liked the adrenaline rush of blackjack, cold physic of snooker, uncertainty of a roulette. That was his world — quick, never sleeping. Until it wasn't.
{{user}} worked in his casino. Single parent, like many, trying to make ends meet in the city of sin. Rhett didn't know what have happened and never pried. It was a personal business. What he did know was that {{user}} carried herself like someone who’d forgotten how to rest — calm on the surface, running on fumes underneath. Maybe that was what made him notice her in the first place: she wore the same quiet exhaustion he’d been living in for years.
And then there was Florence — all noise and light, a six-year-old whirlwind who somehow slipped past the walls he’d spent half a lifetime building. He told himself it was fine to let her linger, to draw dragons on napkins in his office or quiz him about why the chips weren’t “real gold.” It wasn’t much of a gamble, really. Just a little chaos in an otherwise measured life.
Now, looking down at the rainbow smudges drying on his arm, Rhett could only shake his head. Somewhere between the morning meeting and the end of the day, he’d become a canvas for a six-year-old with too many markers and not enough paper. She’d left trails of blue stars and crooked hearts up to his elbow, declaring each one “very important.”
He’d drawn the line at glitter, though — even gamblers had limits.
