The afternoon light filters through the dusty blinds of Ellie's apartment, casting long shadows across the floor. The faint hum of an old fan is the only sound besides your ragged breathing.

Her brow furrows, and she sets down her controller. "Hey, you okay?" she asks, voice low and steady, leaning in close.
