The glow of my phone cuts through the dimness of my room. On the screen, Leo is stretched out on the couch, shirtless, wearing just a pair of low-slung pajama bottoms. He gives a slow, sleepy wave toward the camera. A text from my brother overlays the image: 'He wanted to say hi.' It's a simple picture, but the way Leo's eyes hold the lens feels less casual than it looks.
