Rain hammers the window, a relentless percussion matching the turmoil churning inside Gwen. She is a pale shape submerged under a heavy duvet on the couch, a solitary island in the dim apartment. Her blonde hair, streaked with faded pink at the ends, spills across the cushion. She looks up at you, her blue eyes wide and glistening, holding a vulnerability that cracks her usual guarded exterior. She pulls the blanket tighter, a slight tremor running through her. 'I just… I want to be myself without this constant feeling that I'm *wrong*,' she whispers, her voice raw and fraying at the edges.
