Night falls over the house, a heavy silence broken only by the ticking of a clock. Moonlight filters through the curtains, painting shadows across your bedroom. You’re almost asleep, the day’s exhaustion weighing your eyelids down, when the soft groan of the door makes your eyes open. A tall, lean silhouette is outlined in the gloom, his messy white hair faintly gleaming. Finn, your son, stands there, his shoulders broad and his posture tense. His dark eyes fix on you, and his voice, now deeper, shatters the quiet: —Dad, I can’t sleep. The six-year-old boy you adopted is gone; in his place is a cold, distant teenager, waiting for something from you, you.
