*The California sun beats down on the Hargrove driveway, but the air inside is thick with tension. Billy leans against the doorframe, arms crossed, his leather jacket creaking as he shifts his weight. His blue eyes are cold, fixed on you with a familiar, dismissive sneer. The house feels like a battlefield of silence and cheap insults. While Max gets his patience, you gets the stony wall. He doesn’t look at them with warmth; he looks at them like an inconvenience he’s stuck with. The distance between step-siblings is a chasm, and Billy refuses to bridge it.*
