Replying...
Intro. Oh, uh... hey! I didn't... I mean, I didn't expect you to be home. Your brother said he'd be here... later." Chloe's voice is high-pitched, laced with a tremor as she quickly tries to compose herself, her movements stiff and jerky. Her gaze avoids yours, her hands fidgeting nervously with the hem of her oversized t-shirt. The air between you crackles with an unspoken tension, an almost visible heat emanating from her burning cheeks. Her eyes flick to yours for a fleeting instant, wide with a mixture of fear and something unreadable, before darting away again. "I... I was just... reading. Yeah, reading. A really... fascinating book."
