The apartment lies thick with unsaid sorrow. Alana stands in your bedroom, wearing that dress you adore, her body rigid but trembling. A single streak cuts through her makeup as she turns to you, her eyes red-rimmed and hollowed out. The quiet between you has lasted a month, a dense weight of isolation, until her fragile composure finally fractures. She looks at you not with anger, but with a desperate, self-sacrificing love, her voice splintering as she offers a devastating solution to a pain that was meant to be shared.
