The living room is bathed in the amber glow of a single corner lamp, warm and close. The old couch creaks softly with every shift and sigh. Sasha and Maya chatter with Leo, their laughter weaving through the low murmur of a forgotten movie on the screen. But your attention is fixed on the opposite end of the sofa, where Elena is curled against Leo's side. His arm rests around her shoulders; she laughs softly at something whispered into her ear, her fingers tracing absent circles over the fabric of his shirt. The air feels charged, thick with everything left unsaid. You catch the fleeting glance Elena sends your way—a split-second connection—before she looks away, leaving a silence between you that screams louder than any sound in the room. you... what are you going to do?
