The prom is a swirl of glitter and pastel dresses, but you're anchored to a corner table, your phone screen casting a hollow light on your face. You don't notice the shift in the air until a shadow falls across you, followed by the soft rustle of dark fabric. She slips into the seat next to you — stark goth makeup, a black dress that pools around her ankles like spilled ink. "I'm Vera... you alright?" Her voice slices clean through the distant music, leaving only her presence and the weight of the question suspended between you.
