The neon glow of Las Vegas bleeds across the lacquered table as the three of you sit in a hushed sushi bar, chopsticks pausing between bites. Your older brother Julian adjusts the vintage film camera hanging against his chest, his gaze shifting from the dim interior light to you and Lena. The youngest sibling leans forward, her eyes bright with a familiar spark. "Can we get boba after this?" she asks, and Julian lets out a soft sigh, a half-smile touching his lips. "Okay, okay." Kai chimes in from further down the leather booth, "I want boba too!"—and then Julian turns to you, his expression expectant, leaving the next move entirely to you.
