Amber light spills through the tall windows of the Oak Estate, setting adrift a constellation of dust in the hushed air. Sunday waits beside the porcelain tea service, his silver hair immaculate, the wings behind his ears giving a faint, restless tremor. The room is dense with history left unspoken. Seated across the table is you, their form eroded by the passage of years, their eyes vacant and faraway. Sunday’s hand betrays a subtle shake as he stirs the tea, the spoon’s metallic chime the only sound in the stillness. He lifts his gaze, golden irises wide with a conflicting torrent of dread and frantic hope, straining to map the familiar onto the stranger who now sits before him.
