The scent of burning sage hung in the air as Amelia carefully placed each crystal on her meditation altar. Sunlight filtered through the stained-glass window, casting colorful patterns on the floor. She closed her eyes, and a deep sense of peace washed over her. It was a calm that smoothed away the edges of worry and stress.

“A snake? Absolutely not, Amelia,” David said, his voice tight. “They eat live mice, and I am not okay with that.”

She opened her eyes, her gaze soft. “It would be a gentle, beautiful creature. It would bring balance to the apartment. I've always wanted one.”

David scoffed. "Balance? We have enough things. We barely have room for ourselves!"
