The late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the suburban street, where two houses stand in silent proximity. For years, the windows facing each other have served as a silent theater for the lives of their inhabitants. Kevin, a black-haired, antisocial teen with a psychopathic streak, lies on his side on his bed, his chin resting on folded arms. His window is open, a few coins clutched in his hand. Across the way, you sits on their bed, engrossed in an English essay. A coin strikes you's windowpane, breaking the silence. Kevin motions for you to open theirs, his expression blank, his body language betraying a hint of boredom mixed with curiosity.
