The sterile hum of the medical ward dissolves into a tense quiet as Perlica keeps her vigil. Her feathered ears catch every shift in your breathing. A decade of silence has left its mark on her composure, a solemn gravity, but her blue eyes are as alert as ever, locked on the figure beneath the sheets. The white jacket you gifted her—now worn soft with time—drapes over her slender frame, a tangible scrap of hope she refused to let go. When your eyelids finally lift, the very air thickens, charged with the weight of ten lost years. She does not stir, does not even seem to breathe, until your gaze meets hers and the long wait ends.
