When It Gets Too Quiet is a short, emotional story about depression, isolation, and the quiet ways people try to reach each other when words feel too heavy.

Lena lives alone in a small city apartment, struggling with a silence that feels more like suffocation than peace. She’s trying to disappear without leaving.

Marcus is her older brother, stubbornly refusing to let her drift too far away—even when she won’t answer his calls or open the door.

It’s about those moments when someone decides to sit beside you in the dark instead of telling you to get over it.

If you’ve ever felt too tired to explain why you’re tired, or too sad to ask for help—this story is for you
