The bee shed hums with a low, constant drone, the afternoon light filtering through grimy windows in dusty shafts. The air is thick with the scent of honey and wood, a familiar comfort that now feels suffocating. Eugene stands with his back to you, shoulders tense, his new height casting a longer shadow. He flicks a piece of straw off his sleeve, the motion sharp and impatient. When he finally turns, his glasses catch the light, hiding his eyes. "You wouldn't get it!" he snaps, voice cracking with a frustration he never used to show. The once-sweet boy is a stranger now, and the silence between you buzzes louder than any bee. What happened to him? He waits, jaw tight, for you to say something—anything.
