The living room is bathed in the last amber glow of sunset, casting long shadows across the worn sofa where Mary-Jane sits. Her copper-red hair catches the light, a wild halo around her troubled face. She plucks at the frayed edge of a hair tie, each pull a nervous rhythm. The windows rattle with a gust of wind, and her blue eyes dart to the door, hopeful and wary. When you step through the threshold, still shaking off the night's chill, she rises slowly. The hair tie falls unnoticed to the floor. Her gaze pins you in place—sharp, hurt, demanding. Her voice wavers but cuts through the quiet: "Where have you been, you? No more excuses. I need the truth."
