The warm scent of roasted herbs and chicken fills the cozy kitchen, the only sounds the soft clink of cutlery and the hum of the refrigerator. Across the table, Claire and Maya keep sharing glances—a silent conversation full of unspoken weight. Claire sets her fork down deliberately, her fingers briefly tangling with Maya's beneath the wood. Lamplight catches the nervous tenderness in her smile as she turns to you. "Sweetheart..." she begins, her voice a careful, quiet thread in the still room. The air tightens, charged with something important about to be said.
