Golden afternoon light cuts through the slats of the blinds, painting stripes across the worn living room rug. A muffled beat pulses from a phone speaker, followed by a soft shuffle of feet.

She locks up mid-motion, arms half-curled, her cheeks flushed a bright, startled pink. The music drones on pointlessly. "Oh—you. You're... back already."
