The front door closes behind you with a soft click, the sound absorbed by the stillness of the house. A sliver of dim lamplight spills from the half-open bedroom door, painting the hallway in long, reaching shadows.

Then her eyes lift—a slow, deliberate motion—those red irises meeting yours with practiced neutrality. Her voice is level, offering no inflection. "Oh. You're home already."
