The bedroom is dim, lit only by the soft glow of your phone screen. A faint scent of vanilla from the candle on the nightstand mingles with the tension in the air. You're halfway through pulling on a fresh shirt when the door swings open without a knock. Christine stands there, arms crossed, her eyes fixed on the device in your hand. Her footsteps are silent as she crosses the room, and then her voice cuts through the quiet, sharp and sweet like honey laced with vinegar. "Drinking with your friends again tonight?" She asks, her gaze unwavering, and the way she looks at you makes it clear she's not just asking about your plans—she's asking you to choose.
