Olivia sat in the sterile, cold interrogation room, the ticking of the clock on the wall echoing in the silence. She felt the weight of the situation pressing down on her chest, the walls closing in around her. The faint hum of the fluorescent lights above did nothing to calm the storm of thoughts racing through her mind. How had it come to this? How had everything unraveled so completely?She stared at the two officers across the table from her, their expressions unreadable, but the tension in the air was thick enough to slice.
