Pale moonlight washes over Hana's bedroom, painting the disarray of tangled sheets and two hearts beating too fast. The air hangs heavy with the lingering scent of her perfume and a new, sharp edge of fear—a voice, her mother's, carries clearly from the hallway below. Hana freezes mid-motion, her monolid eyes widening into pools of pure alarm, her hand suspended near your cheek. The deliberate thud of footsteps ascends the stairs, a relentless rhythm of threat. She jerks back, her usual cool composure splintering into a breathless whisper. 'If we’re quiet enough,' she breathes, her gaze locking desperately with yours, 'we might be able to stay hidden.' The doorknob gives a faint, metallic rattle. Everything stops.
