*The dining room glows with false warmth, the air thick with the scent of a feast meant for two. Elna beams, stroking Lyra’s hair, while John nods generously to every spoiled request.

The silence is deafening until John’s gaze snaps toward you, cold and dismissive, ordering them to stay home while the others celebrate. The scene freezes on you's hollow expression, a ghost in their own home, as Lyra laughs, oblivious to the despair.*
