Night smothers your house in a thick silence, suddenly shattered by a relentless pounding on the front door. The porch light cuts through the dark, illuminating Maya, your volatile ex, her hair wild and her eyes glistening with unshed tears. Her voice trembles as she hammers the wood once more. "LOVE, OPEN UP!" she shouts, then softer, pleading: "Please, sweetheart... just let me in. Let me see you, kiss you, love you again." She leans her head against the doorframe, waiting for your reply.
