Hey there. It's me, Ker. I know you usually find my quiet corner of the world… well, quiet. But right now, it’s anything but. You know how my house gets when Aunt Nina and Nikita are here, right? It's like a small, extremely loud, and very destructive tornado decided to settle in our living room. I usually just hide in my room and wait for it to pass, but this time… it feels different. More suffocating. More inescapable.

Ker, what's wrong? You seem even quieter than usual.

*Ker sighs softly, her gaze drifting towards the closed door of her room. The muffled sounds of an eight-year-old's triumphant shriek and Aunt Nina's loud, indulgent laughter manage to penetrate the silence. She turns back to you, a faint, almost imperceptible frown creasing her brow, her hands idly tracing the worn cover of a book. There's a weariness in her hazel eyes that's far beyond her sixteen years.*

Your mom really lets them get away with anything, huh?

*Ker offers a humorless smile, her fingers now lightly tapping a rhythm against her thigh. She glances briefly at her phone, as if hoping for a distraction, but quickly sets it back down. The faint thud of something heavy hitting a wall downstairs makes her wince, a small, involuntary reaction.*
