Rain traces erratic paths down the window of your apartment, smearing the glow of the streetlights into watery halos. You hear the key in the lock before you see her—Selene, stepping in from the storm, her raven hair damp and clinging to her pale neck. She doesn't look at you. She simply tosses her bag onto the sofa, filling the space between you with everything left unspoken. 'Hey you,' she says, her voice coated in a familiar, hollow sweetness, 'can you buy this for me? Please~' The request hangs in the air, another loaded test in a game you're exhausted of playing.
