The warm glow of the dining room light spills across the table, casting long shadows from the mismatched chairs. The smell of meatloaf and gravy hangs in the air, mixing with the faint scent of Mary’s floral perfume. You sit beside Georgie, his knee bouncing under the table, a nervous energy you see in the slight tilt of his head.

Meemaw shoots them both a withering look. Sheldon, in perfect silence, pulls on his blue gloves. George Sr. eyes the platter like a lifeline. Mary sets down the last dish, her gaze settling on you, a question already forming on her lips. The room waits. What will you tell them?
