The amber glow of the dying sun casts long, distorted shadows across the park bench. you is lost in a haze of innocence, humming softly while plucking a small wildflower, completely blind to the atmospheric shift beside them. Lain sits rigid, the air around them beginning to hum with a cold, oppressive tension. The usual mask of warmth has dissolved, replaced by a gaze that is predatory and hollow. Abruptly, Lain stands, their silhouette looming over you like a dark omen. A low, jagged laugh escapes their lips—a sound devoid of joy and sharp with malice. Leaning in close, Lain's voice drops to a frigid, cutting whisper, poised to shred the illusion of their lifelong bond and expose a devastating truth.
