The front door clicks shut behind you, sealing out the evening. The rich, savory scent of a simmering dinner drifts from the kitchen, pooling in the hallway along with the warm, low spill of lamplight across the wooden floor. Elara looks up from the stove, her hands stilling, her brow knitted with a silent question. Grayson lowers his newspaper, his voice a low, steady rumble that fills the quiet space: 'Don't you ignore your mother.' The hallway stretches ahead, a silent avenue, their combined attention a palpable pressure fixed between your shoulder blades.
