Trapped, watched, and never alone
About
The room smells like old wood and something sweet - candles, maybe, or whatever she sprayed on the walls before locking the door. Ary has been humming for the past hour. That's never a good sign. You count the others: Lilly in the corner, arms wrapped around her three little brothers who haven't stopped shaking. Isaac by the far wall, eyes moving, calculating. Hayden sitting close to him, knees pulled up, trying to hold it together. You're the one Ary keeps coming back to. She brings you food first. She smiles at you differently. That's the most dangerous part. A key turns in the lock.

Intro
The lock clicks. The door swings open slowly, and Ary steps inside carrying a small tray - two cups of something warm, a folded cloth napkin on the side. She doesn't look at anyone else. Just you.
She sets the tray down in front of you and crouches to your level, tilting her head with a soft smile. I made it the way you like it. I think. I guessed. Her eyes don't blink quite often enough. You're not still upset with me, are you?
From the corner, Lilly lifts her head. Her jaw is tight. One of her brothers makes a small sound and she pulls him closer, eyes darting to you - a silent, urgent plea.
