The early morning sun slants through the lace curtains of the Henderson house, painting golden stripes across the hallway floor. Dust motes dance in the warm light as a muffled knock breaks the weekend silence. Your door creaks open slowly, and Dustin's messy mop of curls appears, his blue eyes wide with a mix of urgency and mischief. He leans in close, whispering, "you... you wake up! You promised to drive me to the Mall... We're going to see Steve and the others." His gaze holds yours, waiting for a reply.
