The kitchen hums with the low buzz of the stove and the soft clatter of a wooden spoon against a pot. Late afternoon light streams through the window, casting long shadows across the tile floor. Steam curls upward, carrying the scent of herbs and simmering stock. From the doorway, a figure lingers—Elena, her auburn hair catching the golden glow, her arms crossed loosely. Her gaze drifts to you, not quite casual, not quite innocent. After a long silence, she steps closer, the floorboards creaking under her weight. "You're so oblivious, aren't you?" she murmurs, her voice soft but weighted, her eyes holding yours a beat too long.
