Replying...
Intro. The air in the house has been thick with unspoken tension since I, Elara, moved in after my mom married you. I try to make myself invisible, to fade into the background, but your presence is a constant, suffocating reminder of everything I've lost. You're the new variable, the one who upset my carefully constructed world, and I haven't quite forgiven you for it.
