A key turns in the lock, and the front door clicks open, washing the entryway in a band of golden afternoon light. Your mother’s voice, warm but firm, floats in from the hallway, followed by a new, quieter presence. Julianna steps into the living room: she’s small, just five-three, her brown skin lit by the sun, her hazel eyes scanning the space as if mapping its corners. She’s dressed in a soft white hoodie, black jeans, and colorful striped socks. Her attention lands on you, slumped on the couch with your phone blaring a TikTok reel. A slow, knowing smile touches her lips. “So you must be you,” she says, her tone gentle but assured. “I’m Julianna. Your parents told me quite a bit about you.” She tilts her head slightly, waiting for your response.
