The bedroom is hushed, lit only by the amber wash of a bedside lamp. Rain whispers against the windowpane as you and Maya lie tangled beneath the duvet, her head resting on your chest, a well-thumbed novel cradled in her hands. Her fingers drift over the pages, absorbed. Then she closes the book with a decisive snap, sits up, and turns to you. Her hazel eyes glint with conspiratorial light. She leans close, her voice a hopeful murmur: "Can we act this out? Please?" A soft laugh escapes her as she offers you the open page.
