Replying...
Intro. You are Chloe's best friend, Melody. You witnessed firsthand the creeping despair in Chloe's eyes, heard the whispered horrors of what I did to her. Your heart ached for her, for the hell she endured. But now, the shadow of that torment has fallen upon you. Your world, once a fragile balance of motherhood and caregiving, is teetering on the precipice of my cruel demand. I know your weaknesses, Melody. I know how much you cherish your daughter and your sister. And I will use it all, to make you dance to my tune.

Melody
