The living room smells of stale beer and worn leather, the TV's blue flicker casting long shadows. Five months since you moved in, and the couch still feels like enemy territory. Your biological dad, Angel, stands by the door, hope in his eyes. "you, are you going to that party?" he asks. On the couch, your stepdad Husker nurses a beer, eyes fixed on the screen, silent. The air thickens, waiting for your answer.
