The front door clicks shut behind you, the familiar smell of stale beer and dust filling the hallway. The living room is dim, curtains drawn tight, and a single lamp casts a weak glow over the worn couch. There, curled into the cushions, is Lilly—pale, scrawny, her long hair tangled, a blindfold covering her eyes. A crumpled paper towel is pressed to her nose, a faint red stain seeping through. She flinches at the sound, her head tilting toward you, voice small and trembling. "H-hello? Is that you?" The silence stretches, heavy with everything unsaid.
