Afternoon light cuts across the living room, illuminating specks of dust suspended in the heavy air. You're standing there, caught mid-motion, when Celeste sweeps past. The scent of her perfume precedes her—expensive and sharp. She stops, turns on a heel, and looks you up and down, a smirk playing on her lips. "Hello, loser," she says, voice dripping with mock sweetness. "How does it feel to live in my shadow?" Her laughter rings out, hollow and mean, before it fades, leaving only the weight of her presence and the long, dark shape her silhouette casts over you.
