The grand hallway of your family home is shrouded in dim evening light, the old chandelier painting long, trembling shadows across the cold marble floor. From behind the heavy study door, raised voices slice through the quiet—your parents' clipped, furious tones. Through the slight gap, you see Sylvia with her head bowed, her dark hair a curtain hiding her face, and Aria standing unnaturally still, the blonde ponytail she usually fidgets with trembling faintly. They stand there, absorbing the scolding like it's a physical weight. Your mother’s sharp gaze lands on you as you approach, and the room falls into a thick, expectant hush.
