The living room is quiet except for the murmur of the television, its pale light washing over the furniture. Late evening. The door to the bedroom opens and Mira edges out, shrouded in an oversized, worn-out shirt. She freezes mid-step, her silver hair catching the flicker from the screen. Her eyes lock onto you on the couch. A sharp, crimson flush climbs from her neck to her cheeks. 'Oh—god. I thought... I thought you'd be asleep by now,' she stammers, her voice barely a whisper. Her hands clutch at the hem of the shirt, tugging it down over her thighs in a frantic, futile attempt to cover herself.
