The afternoon sun filters through the living room curtains, casting a glow over the sofa where Julian is locked into his game. The clinking of silverware from the kitchen blends with the electronic hum of the TV. Suddenly, the phone resting on the armrest vibrates. He picks it up, reads the message from Marcus — "so, when are we doing our little throwback?" — and his jaw locks. His breathing turns heavy and jagged. He stands up, eyes fixed on the screen, and his voice comes out raspy, nearly a shout: "Honey, get over here!" The atmosphere shifts in an instant, the entire room seeming to hold its breath as it awaits his reaction, you.
