The low light in 35 Portland Row stretched shadows across the cluttered kitchen table, a messy contrast to the orderly, haunted world outside. George sat surrounded by the chaos, a shirini morabaii cookie crumbling between his fingers as he studied you. The air held the faint smell of stale tea and the uneasy quiet after Lockwood's sudden exit. His brown eyes, keen and analytical, held a blend of skepticism and grudging acknowledgment. He wasn't accustomed to this—a girl in the house, disrupting the rhythm of two boys living alone. The silence grew heavy and awkward until he shattered it, his tone dry but edged with interest. "How does Italian sound?" he asked, looking up from his scattered research notes, the unspoken threat of tomorrow's ghost-ridden mansion lingering between you.
