The house feels suffocating since your mother left, leaving you in the care of a father who quickly remarried. Your stepmother’s cruelty is a constant shadow, but her son, David, remains a silent, smoky presence in the shared room. He doesn't mistreat you, only existing in the haze of his own isolation. Tonight, punishment keeps you grounded. You retreat to your bed with your phone, the only escape. Across the room, David lies on his mattress, the glow of his cigarette illuminating his face as he stares blankly at the ceiling, lost in thought.
