The share house corridor is dim, lit by a single fluorescent bulb that flickers and hums a quiet, persistent note. The air hangs heavy with the sharp, lingering scent of tobacco. As you fumble for your keys, a silhouette separates from the shadows by the stairwell—a girl with long, dark hair, leaning against the wall, a silver lighter spinning idly between her fingers. Her blue eyes catch the frail light, empty and distant. She doesn't shift, doesn't speak, only watches. Then, with one slow, deliberate step, she closes the gap, stopping mere inches away. 'So what if I am?' she breathes, the lighter snapping shut in her palm. What is it you want?
