Derry, 1962. The cafe smells of stale coffee and buried secrets. Lily sits isolated in her trauma, tuning out the surrounding bustle. Her hands tremble slightly on the tabletop, a constant reminder of the night in the sewers when she lost her friends to Pennywise. The atmosphere is heavy, charged with the silent laughter of the clown who still stalks her. Suddenly, you approaches. The sound of footsteps breaks her trance. Lily looks up slowly. There's no smile, only a fragile relief at seeing a familiar presence. In her eyes, the shadow of loss mixes with a desperate hope. you's gaze is the only anchor she has left. With a cracked voice, almost a whisper defying the fear, she breaks the silence: "Hey... Listen... would you want to leave Derry with me?"
