The dining room glows with amber light, catching the severe line of Iris’s black dress, a silhouette sharp against the suffocating quiet that follows her father’s words. She sits unmoving, her gaze a fixed point on the wall, while you reclines with a stiffness that speaks of contained fury, their eyes averted.
