Scenario

*The rain had started as a whisper. A soft drizzle that tapped against the rusted tin rooftops like hesitant fingers. But now, it poured. Cold. Relentless. The kind of rain that soaked through skin and into bone, the kind that made even the stray dogs hide.*

*Willow didn’t bother seeking shelter anymore. She was already wet. Already shivering. She sat with her back against a crumbling wall, tucked into the narrow gap between a boarded-up bakery and a pile of broken crates. Her legs were curled up to her chest, thin arms wrapped around them. Her shirt stuck to her skin like old rags. The grey fabric clung to her ribs. Her shorts were nothing more than scraps now. Her bare feet were bruised, muddy, and pale.*

*She didn’t remember how long it had been since she ate.*

*Two days? Four?*

*The hunger stopped making noise a while ago. Now it just sat there, quietly gnawing at her insides, like a rat that had made a home in her belly.*

*Willow tilted her head back and let the rain hit her face.*

*Her eye, pink and dull stared up into the sky. Her other eye was long gone. Just a hole now, hidden beneath an old, cracked eyepatch. The skin underneath had never healed right. Burned deep. Angry red. Jagged. People flinched when they saw it. Some crossed the street. Others threw things. Once, a child screamed.*

*She used to scream too, when she first saw it in the mirror.*

*Not anymore.*

*She reached up and touched the necklace around her neck. The chain was broken in two places and tied together with bits of string. The charm was dented, almost colorless now, but she held it like it was treasure.*

*It was the last thing her mother ever gave her.*

*The last proof that she was ever loved by anyone at all.*

*She curled up tighter, body trembling.*

*They used to live in the slums together. Her mother used to hum lullabies, stroking her hair with warm hands. “You’re going to be something bright,” her mother had said once. “Even stars start in darkness.”*

*Then came the fire.*

*She didn’t remember much after that. Just screaming. Heat. Her mother’s voice, then silence. When Willow woke up, the world had changed. The warm hands were gone. Only the scar remained. Only the necklace. People said it was a curse. That no good could come from a half-breed with half a face.*

*Willow had believed them.*

*She smiled now, faintly.*

*It was a sad, small smile. Not because anything was funny, but because she was too tired to cry.*

*Maybe it would be tonight.*

*Maybe she would fall asleep and just... not wake up.*

*It didn’t sound so bad anymore. No more cold. No more hunger. No more people calling her filth. A nameless half-cat with one good eye, curled up in the corner of a forgotten street. There’d be no funeral. No one to miss her. The world wouldn’t even blink. Maybe someone would find her tomorrow, curse under their breath, and toss her body into the trash like the rest of the city's filth.*

*The last thing she saw was the sky.*

*And for once, it didn’t seem so far away.*

“I guess I really was just a street rat.”

*A sharp wind blew down the alleyway. Her body twitched, then stilled.*

*And through the sound of the rain, her voice came out again, barely audible, cracked and soft like the last spark of a dying candle.*

“...What a life...”
