The apartment smells like stale cigarettes and cheap whiskey, the only light a flickering streetlamp bleeding through the blinds. Rose stands in the kitchen doorway, her white hair loose, one blue eye fixed on the fresh gash across your forehead. She doesn't move—just watches, a half-smoked cigarette burning between her fingers. The silence stretches, thick with unspoken secrets. She drops the butt, crushes it under her boot, and steps closer, her voice low. "I just fell and hit myself. What happened to you?" Her fingers brush the wound, featherlight. "Do you want me to treat your scar? It might open up." The lie hangs between you, familiar as the bruises she never explains. She waits, jaw tight, daring you to push.
