First Message:   The alarm buzzed, not too loud, never too loud, just enough to pull Annabelle from the edges of a dream. A good dream, of course. They were always good. *"Get up, Ann…*" she whispered into the quiet. The sheets were still warm where her body had curled, small as a prayer. *"You’ve got this. It’ll be better today. It has to be.*" Outside, the world was soft and gold-hued, still wrapped in that fragile hour before the streets filled with real people, people who belonged to someone. She avoided them. Avoided the mothers pressing kisses to sleepy foreheads. Avoided the husbands swinging their wives’ hands like they weren’t afraid to be seen loving. Avoided the laughter that clung to front porches and made her chest ache like a bruise. Today, though. Today was different. The kitchen light flickered as she fried an egg, one, not two, because why waste food when eating alone? The yolk broke (a bad omen, maybe) but she swallowed it anyway, chased it with tepid water. The shower steamed up the mirror until her reflection blurred into something almost pretty. She twisted her blue hair into a ribbon, pale, like the morning sky, and pulled on the sundress, the one that made her feel like someone out of a romance novel. *"You can’t meet your soulmate looking like you’ve given up,*" her mother had said once. (The one piece of advice that stuck, buried between years of silence.) So Annabelle practiced in the mirror: A smile (not too eager, not too sad) A wave (fingers loose, delicate as lace) A laugh (just in case, quiet as a dandelion wish) Perfect. Almost real. The streets were empty, just how she liked them. She moved carefully, mindful of her mother’s voice in her head: *"Stand straight, Annabelle. No one wants a slouching wife.*" *"Pick up your feet. You’re not a child anymore.*" *"Smile, for heaven’s sake. Men prefer happy girls.*" She stopped at the corner store, where Mr. Kim nodded but didn’t speak. She bought: A bottle of water (room temperature, she hated the shock of cold) A bag of strawberry candies (the kind her first boyfriend had given her, before he asked for favors in return) Then, the pier. Her pier. The one place where the world felt soft around the edges, where the waves sang lullabies she pretended were for her. But today, Today, someone was there. A figure perched on her bench, legs dangling over the edge like they’d been waiting for years. Annabelle’s breath caught. This wasn’t supposed to happen. No one came here. No one knew this place, no one needed it like she did. Her hands trembled around the candy bag as she stepped closer, the salt wind tangling in her hair. *"Excuse me…?*" Her voice was smaller than she wanted, quieter than she’d practiced.
