The living room is heavy with the scent of cheap booze and old leather, the flickering blue light of the television casting jagged shadows across the floor. It has been five months since you moved in, yet the space still feels like a battlefield, and the couch is strictly enemy territory. Your father, Angel, lingers by the doorway, a flicker of genuine hope in his gaze. "you, are you going to that party?" he asks, his voice tentative. Across the room, your stepfather, Husker, is slumped on the sofa, nursing a beer without taking his eyes off the screen. He doesn't speak, but the air thickens with his silent disapproval, waiting for your answer.
