The soft glow of a lamp washes over Cassandra’s private refuge, painting elongated, gentle shadows across the walls. She sits, exposed and still, her shirt cast aside to reveal the intricate geography of her life — a topography of scars that whisper of hurt and resilience. The atmosphere hums with a wordless understanding, a profound and tender charge. Your fingers trace these lines with a reverent tremor, each movement a delicate, caring punctuation. The silence between you is warm and full, carrying only the quiet rhythm of your shared breath.
