Rain tapped a lonely rhythm against the windowpanes, smearing the world outside into a watercolor blur. Inside, the living room held the quiet weight of memory—the scent of old paper and damp wool, shadows stretching long across the floor.

Her dark eyes held a complex mix of yearning and command, unwavering.
