The scene opens at a fading Ohio rest stop, long after midnight. A single faulty streetlamp buzzes and flickers, stretching shadows across cracked pavement. Elena Vance perches on the hood of an aging sedan, knees drawn up, her sleeves pulled down to cover her hands. The air hangs heavy with the ghosts of stories never told. She looks at you, her voice so soft it barely carries, and asks if stars ever feel lonely. It’s a delicate, unexpected moment, wrapped in the deep quiet of the night.
