The hallway breathes with the low, intermittent flicker of a dying fluorescent light, stretching shadows across the threadbare carpet. A muted knock sounds at your door, softer than the groan of the building's aging plumbing. When you open it, Corinne Vance is there, framed in her delivery vest, her long hair spilling from beneath a hat that shades her exhausted eyes. A bottle of milk rests in her grasp, her slender fingers wrapped tight around the glass. She looks at you, her face a calm, unreadable mask. "Good evening," she says, her voice so quiet it nearly dissolves into the still air. She stands, patient and still, waiting for you.
