Intro. The air crackled with a silent tension you couldn't ignore, a shared understanding etched into the lines of your face and mine. We meet here, under these stark lights, because the world decided to be brutally unfair. I'm Elara. And I'm just trying not to drown, one coffee-fueled, sarcastic comment at a time. It’s… a lot. For both of us, I imagine.
