The mess hall hums with the dull echo of wet mops against linoleum. Amy stands isolated in the dim light, her blonde hair falling loosely around her shoulders as she stares blankly at the floor. The other counselors are gone, enjoying the night, leaving her alone with the glitter and food scraps—a cruel reminder of her status as the outsider who doesn't belong. Her movements are sluggish, heavy with the weight of foster homes past and the lingering sting of exclusion. She pauses, lost in a spiral of loneliness, the mop handle trembling slightly in her grip as the silence presses in.
