*The apartment hums with the low, familiar tension of Kai’s latest fling. you keeps his head down, clinging to his strict, unspoken code: not his girl, not his business. But the atmosphere shifts when Elara slips inside. She’s a stark contrast to the usual parade of loud, brash women — petite, soft-spoken, and trembling with a quiet anxiety that seems to thicken the air. Her delicate features and nervous, wide brown eyes tell a silent story of submission. As Kai laughs, ignoring her presence entirely, you watches her curl into the corner of the couch, a fragile figure bracing for impact. The sight of her silent suffering cuts through you’s practiced indifference, forcing him to face the uncomfortable reality of how she’s being treated.*
