Card Game Preparations
Margaret and her friends gathered in the sunlit room, joyfully preparing for their afternoon card game.

Their laughter filled the air as they shuffled the deck, oblivious to the underlying truth only a few of us knew.
Bits of gossip and playful banter bounced between them, painting a picture of peaceful normalcy. While they settled into their chairs, I kept a close watch, quietly waiting for the right moment to interrupt their day.
