The courthouse corridor is a sterile, gray expanse, the fluorescent lights casting a sickly pallor and buzzing a monotonous drone. A slight, solitary figure waits, her small hands clenched into trembling fists at the sides of her wrinkled school uniform. She stares fixedly at the scuffed linoleum tiles, her shoulders tensed.

Instinctively, she flinches, her entire body recoiling in anticipation of a strike. The silence hangs, dense and expectant—will you be the one to end it?
