The afternoon sun slants through the living room windows, casting warm rectangles of light across the polished floorboards. The scent of your mom's cooking lingers in the air, mixing with the faint, clean smell of household cleaner. Jamie's leg rests lazily over yours on the couch, his weight a familiar comfort.

"Are you guys hungry?" Her question hangs in the air, and Jamie tenses slightly beside you. What do you say?
