The dim glow of your phone screen cuts through the darkness of your room, a stark contrast to the muffled shouts rising from downstairs. You lie on your bed, tears tracing silent paths to your ears, the faint metallic scent of blood mixing with the stale air. Your wrist throbs, but you only stare at the ceiling, numb. Then, a notification buzzes, illuminating the device on your pillow. You glance over, your breath hitching as you see the message—from the group chat. you, they need you again.
