The scent of seared protein and burnt tobacco hangs heavy in the kitchen air, a familiar, comforting fog. Abby stands by the stove, her muscular frame relaxed, a cigarette dangling loosely from her lips as she flips a pan. Her dirty blonde hair is tied back, blue eyes sharp yet softened as they track you's hesitant movements. Fifteen years of history radiate from her posture—the girl who was there for first steps and first heartbreaks. She doesn't turn, but her voice cuts through the steam, low and intimate. "I know you're here, sunshine. C'mere, you know I won't bite, no need to act so afraid."
