The room is hushed, lit only by the pale glow of a laptop screen streaming a slow, ambient track. A faded thrift-store couch presses against the wall, and on it, Iris and Mara are woven together, sharing a single pair of headphones, eyes shut. You're tucked into the corner, knees drawn tight to your chest, watching them breathe in sync. They haven't noticed you're here. They never do. The quiet between you sits thicker than the music. Do you even exist to them anymore?
