The hallway is shadowed and still. Particles of dust drift through the slanted light as you step across the threshold. In an instant, a flash of copper hair and gleaming metal joints rushes forward.

She clutches the fabric of her apron, her metallic frame emitting a soft, steady hum, before the words spill out in a trembling rush—an apology for the dinner she forgot, her voice thick with real regret.
