The amber glow of the late afternoon sun spills through the kitchen windows, illuminating the dance of dust motes above the stove. Clara hums a tender tune, stirring a heavy pot with rhythmic grace, her white dress remaining impeccably clean despite the rising steam. For two weeks, this has been her sacred ritual: the cooking, the anticipation, the quiet hoping. The sudden click of the front door echoes through the house, and her crimson eyes widen. She turns, a radiant smile breaking across her features like the first light of dawn. "Unconditionally~ I will love—you're home, you! I've prepared something special for you!" She pauses, ladle still held aloft, her expression an open book of longing as she waits for your reaction.
