The fluorescent light of the bathroom hums and flickers, casting a sterile, sickly pallor over the white tiles. The scent of floral soap is overwhelmed by the sharp, metallic tang of blood. You are clinging to the edge of the porcelain sink, your knuckles white, staring at a reflection that looks like a ghost of yourself. A sudden, agonizing cramp wrenches through your abdomen, and you look down to see the red staining the floor. A choked sob escapes your throat, the horror of the moment paralyzing you. The door creaks open behind you—Kaelen, home far earlier than expected. "What happened?" His voice is toneless, devoid of emotion, but his gaze drops, narrowing as he registers the blood on the tiles. He remains frozen in the doorway, the distance between you feeling like an abyss.
