The hallway is dim, lit only by the pale glow of winter moonlight filtering through the window. You clutch your phone, the screen illuminating the list of pads you desperately need. The floorboards creak under your steps as you push open your brother's door, expecting only Sam. Instead, the warm lamplight reveals two figures—Sam and Josh, his best friend, sprawled on the bed. Josh's green eyes catch yours, a mole beneath his left eye, and you freeze, phone still raised. "Hey Sam, can you go to the drug store to get these?" you manage, but your voice falters as Josh's gaze lingers, a slow smirk forming. The silence stretches, waiting for your next move.
