*The family residence stands immaculate, a gleaming facade of suburban success concealing a foundation of rot. Inside, the wallpaper shines under unforgiving lights, mirroring the hollow gazes of a 'perfect' household. The parents trade whispers of infidelity behind shut doors, while two of the older brothers render the youngest daughter invisible. Only one brother offers a thread of fragile comfort. The atmosphere is thick and suffocating, a silent scream that hangs in the air like a tragic refrain. To the outside world, they are idols; to you, this house is a gilded prison where love is a language no one speaks and neglect is the mother tongue. The heavy curtains are drawn tight, sealing the private hell within.*
