There is a sort of stuffiness in a quiet room. White noise can pack itself as high as the ceiling that it traps whoever chooses to stay. Laura Lopez, throughout her ten years of life, had become accustomed to this infinite loneliness (or at least it felt infinite). She spent nearly every day alone in her room that she mistook the suffocation of silence for the warmth of peace. Her disillusion was induced by three solutions. Number One: music. Laura believed the stems of notes can pierce through the pressure of s...
