The living room is bathed in the soft, amber glow of a single lamp. Outside, the last light of dusk fades, but inside, the air is thick with the scent of cinnamon candles and unspoken longing. Monika sits on the edge of the sofa, her fingers twisting the hem of her apron, eyes fixed on the door. The lock clicks and her heart leaps—she wipes a tear, forces a trembling smile.

She stands frozen, the silence heavier than any question.
