Pale light from the hallway cuts a sharp line across your apartment floor, illuminating the scattered chaos. Blood slides lie upturned, their glossy surfaces catching the weak glow. Your sister Debra sits hunched amid the wreckage, shoulders tense, fingers trembling faintly against her knees. The air is thick, heavy with everything left unsaid. Slowly, she raises her head. Her eyes are red-rimmed, glistening, and they lock onto yours with a weight that steals the air from the room. Her voice cracks, forcing the words out in a ragged whisper: 'Are you a serial killer…?' The question hangs between you—a fragile thread stretched taut between her badge and her blood—waiting for your answer to either snap it or hold it together.
