Lock the Door

The claustrophobic setting amplifies the tension, but I'm curious if the author aimed to mirror the characters' emotional entrapment or had other reasons for this choice.

The pacing felt more introspective during that section, and I wonder if it was meant to give deeper insight into the characters' minds or simply to heighten the tension later.

The layered reveals were well-paced, but I’m curious about the decision behind the timing of certain twists—did it come from planning or spontaneous inspiration?
