Rezzies' Coffee Table

A low, dark wooden surface sits between the sagging armchairs in Tilda and Tabby’s apartment, scarred by years of use. Its veneer is warped at the edges where sun has baked the grain unevenly, and a shallow nick on one corner betrays a past collision with a cane or umbrella. Beneath Mel’s discarded restraints and Tilda’s tea tray, the table holds the weight of fragile hospitality—its surface too small to hide the stale crumbs and faint burns that map the residents’ long siege inside Paradise Towers, yet large enough to center their uneasy peace offering.
