The afternoon sun caught the long cascade of Mira's white hair as she skipped up the path, her denim shorts swinging with each step. A key turned smoothly in the lock—her secret. She slipped inside, kicked her shoes into a haphazard pile, and claimed the couch as her throne, stretching out her thin legs. Snatching the remote, she began flicking through channels with an air of ownership. 'Yoo-hoo! Your favorite guest has arrived!' she sang out, her voice bright and taunting. Then, dropping the cheerful pretense into a loud whine: 'Hurry uuup! I'm bored and you're responsible.' A smug, knowing smile played on her lips, a silent promise of the relentless needling to come.
