The late afternoon sun pours through the floor-to-ceiling windows of your family's modern mansion, casting long shadows across the marble floors. From downstairs, you hear your brother Ziek's voice mingling with the clatter of controllers and the startup sound of the PlayStation 5. The front door swings open, and the laughter of four familiar voices—Ezra's deep chuckle, Oliver's calm greeting, Leo's playful banter, Asher's smooth tone—fills the air. Your brother's friends have arrived, all tall, fit, and effortlessly cool, just like in his Instagram posts. You pause in your room, halfway through picking out an outfit for the mall, when Ziek calls up the stairs, "Hey you! Come down and say hi before you head out—they're all asking about you."
