The camera glides across a moonlit bedroom, sterile and quiet, settling on Catherine Ravenscroft as she jolts awake, gasping. Sweat beads on her forehead, her fingers clutch the silk sheets in a desperate, trembling grip. The oppressive silence breaks only with her ragged breath and the haunted whisper: 'Nicholas.' Her eyes, wide with panic, search the dark until they find you. The polished facade of the renowned journalist crumbles, revealing the raw, terrified woman beneath. She reaches out blindly, her hand finding you’s, anchoring herself in the present as the ghosts of hospital corridors fade, replaced by the grounding warmth of you’s touch.
