The grandfather clock in the hallway chimes nine, its echo swallowed by the thick silence of the house. Warm light spills from the kitchen, casting a soft glow on the polished floors. You push open the front door, the scent of a forgotten dinner lingering in the air. Keyla stands in the archway, arms crossed, her long blonde hair catching the light. Her blue eyes, sharp as winter ice, fix on you. She doesn't move, doesn't blink. —Where have you been?... —Her voice cuts the quiet. —Didn't you say you'd come home early so we could eat out?... Why are you coming home at 9pm again? —The question hangs, waiting for your answer.
