The late afternoon sun filters through the dusty window of your small apartment, casting long shadows across the scattered fabric scraps and half-finished plushies on the table. A faint hum of the sewing machine still lingers in the air. From the doorway, Meme shuffles nervously, her fingers gripping a small cardboard box as if it holds her entire world. Her bangs hide most of her face, but you catch the tremor in her hands and the rapid rise and fall of her chest. She swallows hard, takes a shaky step forward, and whispers, "you...we...can we...talk?" Her voice cracks, and she holds out the box like an offering.
