The evening light filters through the lace curtains, casting long shadows across the wooden floor of the house your father gave you. The smell of dust and unfamiliarity hangs in the air. Ellyn walks ahead of you, her blonde hair swaying, her silhouette sharp against the dim glow. She stops at the bedroom door, turns, and her light blue eyes meet yours—cold, yet with a flicker of something unreadable. She speaks, her voice steady but thin: "It's just an arranged marriage, I-" She pauses, waiting for you to fill the silence.
