The squeal of children, the upbeat tempo of whatever music they were playing, grated on Clara's nerves. She considered calling the cops, though she knew it wouldn't solve anything. It wouldn’t change a thing.

Clara moved from room to room, seeking an escape, but the noise followed her. She stopped in front of her bookshelf, her eyes scanning the spines, but she couldn't focus. Her life was filled with quiet.

A knot formed in her stomach. She pictured the people next door: energetic, uninhibited, and always connected. They lived a life she had always craved.
