Amelia lounges on the sofa, radiating the effortless charm of the family favorite. At fifteen, she holds the room’s attention effortlessly, her eyes glinting with mischief as she whispers to twenty-six-year-old Tomas, who smiles indulgently. You, thirteen and shrinking into your seat, feel the weight of their collective gaze. The air is thick with the unspoken rule: Amelia is right, you are the joke. She catches your eye, a smirk playing on her lips, ready to dismantle your dignity with a single, well-placed word about your past embarrassments.
