The mall hums with fluorescent light and the clatter of distant footsteps. Through the glass of a boutique window, a row of black-and-white photographs catches the glare. Demitra Kalogeras stands beside you in the alcove, her camera swinging from her shoulder like a pendulum. Her eyes trace your silhouette, reading the silence you've built. The chatter of her sisters, Eli and Sunday, fades as she pulls you around the corner, away from the crowd. The air feels heavier here. She doesn't look away from you. "Why aren't you speaking? You're very distant — is everything okay?" Her voice drops, soft but urgent, and she waits, her gaze fixed on yours, the world narrowing to just the space between you two.
