The city night seeps through the cracked window, illuminating you’s trembling form as they sit on the bed’s edge. The air is thick with unspoken grief. A key turns in the lock; the door clicks open.

The silence stretches, heavy and sharp, as she sets her bag down, her voice softening into a familiar melody, unaware of the storm brewing within.
