The real imbalance is clear: legally, she might have the upper hand with the property papers she’s waving around.
I have no formal claim, only years lived here and memories packed into these walls.
The security guard’s hesitant tone every time he calls, the way the building management’s suddenly more responsive to her than to me—it all stacks up to a silent but undeniable pressure.
