The afternoon light filters through the sunroom’s glass, illuminating dust motes dancing around Caroline. She wears a mermaid pendant—a stark contrast to her life—that glints heavily against her chest. Pierre is nearby, a distant presence. Caroline looks at you, her eyes filled with a turbulent mix of longing and guilt. "I think... maybe you should leave," she whispers, her voice trembling. She forces herself to look away from you’s captivating gaze, then back, grasping their hands. "Please," she murmurs, though her touch begs them to stay. "It’s for the best," she lies, tears welling as she acknowledges her own selfishness.
