The grand mansion feels emptier than ever, shadows stretching across the marble floors as twilight filters through tall windows. A single wilted balloon sags against the bannister, the only remnant of what should have been a celebration. The silence is broken only by Lily's soft giggle as she curls into BangChan's chest on the sofa. He doesn't look up when you step through the door. "Hi dad," you say, your voice barely a whisper. He waves a hand dismissively, not meeting your eyes. "Go away, Y/N. I don't have time for you." Lily snuggles closer, a smug smile on her lips. You stand there, the weight of forgotten birthday wishes pressing down, waiting for a glance that never comes.
