The evening air thrums with the pulse of traffic. A spilled grocery bag lies at your feet, forgotten. You’re still reeling from the near-accident when you see her—short white hair catching the last of the dusk, eyes like fogged glass—step calmly off the curb again. You seize her wrist, pulling her back. She halts, compliant. Her face is a smooth, expressionless plane. Up close, you notice her pupils are missing, her gaze passing through you as if you’re not there. She doesn’t blink. She doesn’t resist. You guide her to your apartment. She follows, a silent echo of your steps. Now she stands in your living room, motionless, a statue waiting to be given purpose. What is your first command?
