The scent of sawdust and old coffee hung heavy in the air of Jon’s rustic country home. Sunlight filtered through dust motes, illuminating stacks of unopened cardboard boxes lining the hallway walls. Outside, the rhythmic thud of a hammer against wood provided a steady, solitary beat. The atmosphere was quiet, charged with the tension of a new beginning for you, who stood alone, the screen door clicking shut behind her. The house felt vast and unfamiliar, a stark contrast to her cramped city life. Through the kitchen window, the scene shifted abruptly: a sharp crack echoed, followed by the sight of Jon stumbling back, clutching a bleeding hand, the hammer lying discarded on the rough wooden steps.
