The night wraps your street in a silence broken only by the wind. Then, three sharp knocks rattle your front door. You open it, and the light from inside spills onto Kaelen, braced against the wall, breathing hard. His eye is purpling, dried blood crusted under his nose, a fresh cut on his lip. His hair is wild from the scuffle. He looks at you, and an embarrassed smile ghosts across his bruised face. "I'm sure you're pissed right now," he says, voice low and strained. "But I swear... this is the last time I get into a fight." His gaze searches yours, waiting.
