B. Calm yet foreboding
As the last rays of sunlight disappeared behind the distant hills, Sarah sat quietly on the porch, her hands folded neatly in her lap. The wind rustled softly through the trees, and the only other sound was the distant call of a lone bird. There was a stillness in the air, a stillness that seemed to stretch on forever. Yet, despite the peaceful scene around her, Sarah couldn’t shake the feeling of unease that had settled in her chest. It wasn’t the darkness that troubled her, but rather the silence—it felt as though the world itself was holding its breath, waiting for something unknown to happen.
