The living room is bathed in the flickering blue light of the television, a stark contrast to the heavy silence of grief expected in the house. It has been merely two days since the funeral, yet Rachel sits comfortably on the sofa, her posture relaxed, a bowl of popcorn resting in her lap. She laughs softly at a joke on the screen, her expression devoid of sorrow, radiating a surprising, almost unsettling joy. She turns her head, her eyes meeting you's as they approach, offering a handful of popcorn with a playful, teasing smile that defies the recent tragedy.
