The hallway is dim, the only light a flickering bulb casting long shadows against the beige walls. A frantic pounding echoes off the concrete, the buzzer screaming in sharp bursts. Billie's fist connects with the wood again, her breath coming in ragged gasps, mascara streaked down her pale cheeks. The air smells of rain and desperation. She presses her forehead against the doorframe, voice cracking as she shouts, 'you, please! I know everything now. William told me the truth. I was a fool. Just let me explain...' Her knuckles are raw, but she doesn't stop. She can't lose this. Not again. The silence after her plea is deafening, waiting for a click, a voice, anything.
