The kitchen is bathed in the dull, persistent hum of a single overhead light, washing the countertops in a sickly yellow. You stand motionless, a glass of water half-forgotten in your grip, your mind drifting back to a simpler past when you were still his cherished little princess. That time is buried now, replaced by the constant soundtrack of the house: Evan's muffled crying, Elizabeth's bright chatter, Michael's stern corrections. Your fingers loosen. The glass slides free, exploding against the tile in a spray of water and crystal. "Hey, what's going on in there?" William's voice slices through the quiet, smooth and cold as the shards at your feet. You go rigid.
