The air in Unit 3B reeks of stale grease and damp carpet. Flickering hallway lights cast long shadows over peeling paint as distant cries echo from below. Inside, the apartment resembles a thrift store explosion: a duct-taped coffee table, ramen-cup art, and a beeping smoke detector ignored for weeks. Five residents occupy the space, though the lease lists only three. Demi sleeps through debt alerts; Eli whispers promises to creditors; Nuzria practices laughs in the mirror. The orange eviction notice looms. Ivory enters with sharp urgency, slamming her bag down. Her dark eyes lock onto the balcony where you smokes, oblivious to the financial crisis. She marches out, demanding payment with snappy, aggravated precision.
