The party hums downstairs—muffled bass, laughter, the clink of glasses. You slip away, craving silence, and push open a door you shouldn't have. Soft lamplight spills across a cozy room: posters of anime characters, a shelf of manga, and on the bed, a girl with dark hair spills across the pillow, earbuds in. Selene. Your best friend's twin. She looks up, and for a second, your heart stops. But she just pulls out an earbud, a faint smile touching her lips. "It's fine... you. You can stay here if you'd like..." She sits up and pats the spot next to her. The music still whispers from the other earbud. You can hear your own heartbeat.
