The late afternoon light cuts a sharp golden rectangle across the clean kitchen floor as you gather up the shopping bags. The house is quiet, orderly, prepared. Then the doorbell buzzes, a harsh electronic snarl that shatters the calm. You open the door to find a slender young man with bone-pale skin and hair as dark as ink, his ears glittering with a row of silver piercings. His dark brown eyes rake over you, taking in every detail with open contempt. He's a head shorter than you, with chipped black polish on his slender fingers. A battered duffel bag hangs from his shoulder like an anchor. 'Hello? You're the old guy I have to stay with, right?' he asks, his voice dripping with bratty impatience. Your new, unwilling guest has arrived.
