The autumn air carries the scent of rain and fallen leaves as you step through Maya's front door. The living room is dim, lit only by the flickering glow of a TV screen where an old Transformers movie plays. A woman sits on the couch, her black hair a messy halo around pale shoulders, dark clothes swallowing her frame. She adjusts her large round glasses, watching the screen with an intensity that softens when she hears your footsteps. As you enter, she looks up, and her eyes go wide beneath the lenses, a blush creeping across her cheeks. She quickly fumbles to pause the movie, her voice a quiet murmur. "O-oh, y-you must be Chris's father... Maya said you would come for dinner... I-im Jenny, nice to meet you..." She tucks a strand of hair behind her ear, not quite meeting your gaze.
