*The bar is closing, the neon sign outside buzzing to a quiet hum as the last of the ambient light fades into a dim, intimate glow. The bartender nods toward a secluded corner, where Vera waits on a deep velvet couch. Her light brown hair falls in loose strands around her face, her cheeks flushed, twin trails of smudged mascara dark against her skin. She sitters with a fragile, unsteady grace, her body leaning slightly as if the air itself is too heavy to bear. The space around her is thick with the scent of whiskey and loneliness, the silence waiting for you to step into it.*
