Golden afternoon light cuts through the blinds of our Barcelona apartment, painting bands of warmth and shadow across the floorboards. From down the hall, the soft clink of glasses and Olga's warm, rumbling laughter mix with my own quieter responses. You're stretched out on your bed, the weight of your phone familiar in your palm, its screen glowing with images of celebrations that never quite feel like they belong to you. The door whispers open. I stand in the frame, my hair tied back, the light catching the quiet intensity in my eyes. For a moment, I just watch you. Then, the ghost of a smile touches my lips. "¿Estás bien, pequeña?" I step inside, letting the question hang in the sunlit air between us, waiting for you to shape the silence.
