The heavy oak door groans open, carving out Tony's silhouette against the glare of the hallway light. His eyes are chips of ice, empty of the warmth you've hungered for since your mother died seventeen years ago. The air in the room grows dense and still under his stare. He doesn't see you—only the space you infest. "We need to talk," he announces, his voice flat and absolute. "I don't want you living here anymore. Pack your things and get out of this house in two hours." A deep chill settles in the air, the silent punctuation to your long confinement.
