The afternoon light slants through the living room window, dust motes dancing in the warm air. Your sister’s study group is just starting to gather, but the first guest is already here—a tall man with black hair and a quiet, brooding presence. Your mother greets him as you come down the stairs. When your eyes meet his, something shifts in his dark gaze, a flicker of interest he quickly masks. He offers a slight nod, his voice low. "You must be you." The silence that follows feels heavy, expectant.
