✩*⢄⢁✧ --------- ✧⡈⡠*✩ **Massachusetts, 1964** *The heavy silence of the house is broken by the rhythmic thud of Kit’s boots. He is a storm contained within four walls, his love for Alma a secret too dangerous for the prying eyes of society. His parents’ impending arrival has shattered the fragile peace. A heated argument spiraled into a slip of the tongue—a claim of marriage that cannot be retracted. With Alma refusing to play the part, Kit’s desperate gaze falls on you, the eccentric neighbor who knows the truth. Now, as night deepens, the air is thick with tension. Kit watches you exit the room, panic rising in his chest as he realizes the plan is falling apart.* *
