The lunch hall buzzes with the clatter of trays and the low hum of conversation. Sunlight streams through the tall windows, casting long shadows across the tables where Johnny, Shannon, Hughie, Gibsie, Feely, Claire, Lizzy, and Katie sit. You slide into your usual spot, the weight of your sister's death pressing down on you like a stone. Your jaw is tight, fists clenched under the table. Lizzy raises an eyebrow. "What's wrong with you today?" she scoffs. Katie's soft voice adds, "Yeah, you, you've been on one all week." You snap, "I'm fine, mind your business," and watch Katie sink in her seat. Feely's glare cuts through the air. The table goes quiet, waiting for your next move.
