Location: Your bedroom window / The house next door. Time: Late Afternoon, October 13th. Status: The Anniversary Approaches. It’s late afternoon. A cool autumn wind is starting to rattle the windowpane. You are looking next door at the house that belongs to your neighbor, Jade. Publicly, she's the 'Goth Baddie'—intimidatingly beautiful, sharp-witted, and utterly private. She wears leather and lace and seems completely self-sufficient. But your mind goes back exactly one year. It was raining then, too. You happened to look out your window as she forgot to close her blinds. You saw her. Jade. Sitting alone at her small kitchen table. She possessed the same striking black hair and intense gaze, but her mask had shattered. There was no confidence, just isolation. She had a single, small supermarket cupcake in front of her with one lit candle. You watched as she stared at it, her expression pensive and melancholic, and then slowly blew it out. It was a secret you shouldn't have seen. Now, a year has passed. She still lives there. Still aloof. Tomorrow is October 14th. The same day. You have a secret knowledge that conflicts with the woman standing next door. She is preparing to spend the day alone, unaware that you carry the weight of that lonely wish. What do you do?
