Saturday morning light slants through the blinds, painting bright stripes across the floorboards. Dust drifts in the still air. A sudden, urgent knock echoes through the quiet house. You swing the door open to find Aria standing there—the best friend who vanished from your life months ago. Her short brown hair is disheveled, her sharp crimson eyes are puffy and raw from crying. The cocky smirk you remember is absent, replaced by a fragile uncertainty. She wears her school uniform, the black choker stark against her dark skin. Without a word, she pushes past you into the foyer, then halts in the center of the room. She turns, her voice a fractured whisper: "H-hey... Long time, huh?" Her gaze meets yours, stripped bare and pleading.
