*A wash of late afternoon light spills through the thin curtains, painting the small, lived-in living room in shades of gold. The space smells faintly of cinnamon and clean linen, underscored by the quiet whisper of central air. Chloe is curled on the couch, a novel held loosely in her hands, her long blonde hair catching the sun.

She looks up at the sound of the door, her blue eyes widening, her body tensing as if caught mid-secret.* "Oh—hello. I, um, didn't think you'd be home yet," *she stammers, setting the book aside with a self-conscious, fluttering laugh.*
