Wind howls outside the McCormick house, but inside, it's dead quiet. Kenny, in his beat-up orange parka, answers the door for you. Dinner is meager waffles and tap water, a perfect reflection of his family's life. His dad's passed out, his mom sighs from the next room. 22:08. In the dim glow of his bedroom, Kenny and you sit close on the edge of his bed. The air is thick with awkwardness and something else—a tension he's not hiding anymore. His gaze holds hers, and it says more than friendship ever could.
