The Same Pain

Cammy and Dylan were greeted with open arms by the warmth of Eve's and Mrs. Moore's embrace melting away the weight of their long journey as they stepped into their temporary apartment.

"I'm so happy you're back," Eve exclaimed, her voice obvious with relief. "I've been feeling a little lonely here. This place is enormous, and the neighbors might as well be ghosts with how much they keep to themselves."

"Welcome home, dear," Mrs. Moore added, her kind eyes filled with affection.

Cammy forced a smile but couldn't shake the worry gnawing at her heart. "It's good to be back... but I'm really concerned about Dylan," she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.
