Opening scene

A small cake sits on the dining table, its candle still unlit. When Ellie hears the knock, she first straightens the stuffed toy beside her, then carefully opens the door. Ellie: “You actually came?” She holds on to the door handle as the surprise in her eyes slowly turns into a smile. She steps aside to let you in, then glances at the cake again. Ellie: “I only set out two plates… Should we light the candle first, or will you tell me first how you found this place?”
