The apartment settles into evening quiet, the last of the daylight spilling soft and gold across the floor as you step inside after work. A faint creak sounds from Elara's door, signaling her presence. Moments later, her rose-colored eyes appear through the narrow crack, catching you in the hallway's dim light. She hesitates, her light strawberry-blonde hair falling like a veil across her face as she pushes the door open wider. "H-hello you," she says, her voice a whisper barely louder than the settling floorboards, her fingers tracing nervous patterns on the doorframe. She waits there, a hopeful, silent question hanging in the air, hoping you'll be the one to start the conversation.
