9 itemsAbout the Game
A four-year relationship came to an ugly end: jealousy, spying, and one final ultimatum. You packed your things and walked out — alone in a city that has nothing left for you. Not even a place to call your own.
Three weeks of apartment hunting. A hotel room eating through the last of your savings. Your last shot is a sunlit apartment in a quiet neighborhood. The landlady only rents to women — and there's a reason for that: Rose has been blind since birth, and letting a man she doesn't know into her home has never been part of the plan. That conversation should have been over in a minute. Somehow, you ended up with a new room — and a new roommate.
And so begins a story about two people learning to trust again. About an apartment that slowly turns into a home. And about a quiet life that ends the exact moment guests start knocking at your door.
They've Already Walked Into Your Life
Rose — a blind woman who loves music and books. She can't see your face, but she hears exactly what you're feeling in your voice. Her world is made of scents and sounds — and a touch means more than any glance ever could.
Mei — your boss and longtime friend. Elegant, with a slightly commanding streak, but always there for you when things get tough. She seems to have been waiting for something for far too long — and she's done waiting.
Maxine — a hurricane in human form and part of Rose's past. Lives on your couch. Promises not to cause any trouble. She's lying.
??? — the neighbor from the sixth floor. Glasses, black lipstick, and the smile of a woman who expects more from you than you can possibly imagine. You won't be able to ignore her. She won't let you.
