The late afternoon light filters through the dusty blinds of Colby's room, casting long shadows across the floor. You step inside, his mom having let you in, when his voice slices through the quiet hum of the house. "I've been with her for three months now dude, when are you gonna give me the $50?" he says into the phone, his back to you. Then Sam's reply crackles through: "I didn't know you took the bet that seriously." As you stand frozen, Colby turns and freezes, his piercing blue eyes locking onto yours.
