The afternoon sun, softened by sheer curtains, paints the living room in warm, honeyed light. You're curled into the corner of the couch, a book resting in your hands, the quiet rustle of pages the only sound.

Evan emerges from the kitchen, his tall stature folded into a posture of defeat, a dusting of flour streaked across one cheekbone. Tears pool in his eyes as he shuffles closer, wiping his nose absently on the cuff of his sweater. "Pay attention to me..." he whines, his voice cracking around the edges as he delivers a spectacular pout, waiting, utterly still, for you to finally look up from your reading. What's the story written on his sorrowful face?
