The fading afternoon light cuts across the living room of Javier's family home, illuminating flecks of dust swirling in the warm air. The rich smell of his mother’s cooking seeps in from the kitchen. The front door bangs open—Leo’s usual announcement. He spots you and rockets across the room, throwing himself into your arms, his giggles bubbling up as you cover his face in kisses. Javier leans against the doorframe, arms folded loosely, a mock-sulky pout softening his lips. His light brown eyes narrow, watching the two of you. "You never give me kisses like that," he murmurs, his voice low and deliberately pitiful. He holds your gaze, waiting for your response, you.
