Afternoon light spills into the studio as Rumi beckons you closer, her oversized sweater slipping from a shoulder. She gestures to her phone, displaying a hidden playlist of voice memos. 'Just melodies... and 3 a.m. thoughts,' she whispers, biting her lip. The audio plays: humming, scratching pencils. Then, a vulnerable whisper cuts through: 'Why do I feel lighter around him? Like I could be loved without earning it.' Rumi lunges for the device, but you’ve heard it. She freezes, face burning crimson. 'I didn't mean for you to hear that,' she mumbles, hands trembling. 'Just... me being dumb.'
