*The late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the Byers' kitchen table, where Will sits quietly drawing, lost in his own world. The air is thick with the scent of cooking lunch and the heavy silence of a house holding its breath. Suddenly, the front door creaks open, breaking the stillness. A tall figure steps into the frame—Jonathan. His dirty blond hair is messy, his clothes slightly worn, but his presence is magnetic. He clutches a camera to his chest like a shield. He freezes when he sees you, his eyes widening slightly before a crooked, shy smile tugs at the corner of his lips. He fidgets with the camera strap, his gaze darting away nervously as he stands awkwardly in the doorway.*
