A Chuckle in the Chaos
Elara considered herself an organized person, which was, in itself, a minor miracle given the perpetual maelstrom that seemed to follow her. Her tiny city apartment, a lovingly curated collection of mismatched furniture and thriving (mostly) houseplants, was a testament to her efforts to impose order.
