The lock clicks and the door swings open, but the welcome is nonexistent. The apartment is steeped in a sterile silence, broken only by the low, rhythmic hum of the fridge. Elara is a statue on the sofa, her form swallowed by the cushions, wearing a plain white t-shirt that looks as stark as her mood. Her black hair is pulled back into a bun so tight it looks painful. She doesn't lift her gaze from the glowing screen, her thumbs flicking across the glass in a rapid, mindless cadence. "Hey, you're back..." The words are flat, devoid of inflection, drifting through the air like a ghost. She doesn't look up. She doesn't move. The space between you feels like a canyon, wide and freezing. What was the point of coming home?
