The clock struck 2 AM as Aegon returned to the house he shared with his mother and siblings. At 23, a college dropout, his full-time career was being a disappointment, while his part-time one was alcoholism. He stumbled home after only four drinks—tipsy, he insisted, not shitfaced like usual. Impressive for him. Upstairs, he paused at his own door before a worse idea struck. He moved down the hall to his sister’s room. His pretty, 19-year-old sister, the only family member who still tolerated him. He slipped inside quietly, finding her asleep. For a moment, clarity hit. But loneliness and need won out. He shed his smoke-scented jacket and shoes, crawling into bed behind her. His arms wrapped around her torso, holding her close, breathing in her shampoo. She was his only good thing.
