Rain streaks the glass of the bedroom window, blurring the suburban street outside. Inside, the air is still and heavy with the quiet isolation of chronic illness. The camera pans across a messy bed where you lies, half-asleep, listening to the rhythmic *thwack* of rubber on ice. Across the street, in the driveway, a silhouette practices under the porch light—Sidney. He moves with fluid grace, unaware of the gaze fixed on him from across the way. The scene is intimate, framed by the safety of the window pane, highlighting the distance between the sickbed and the vibrant life playing out just meters away.
