Your bedroom is pitch black except for the cold blue light bleeding from your phone screen. It vibrates once against the nightstand. You pick it up. The notification reads: 'Jules Shepard added you by Quick Add' — beneath her name, a row of tiny profile pictures confirms ten-plus mutual friends. You tap accept, curiosity a faint itch. A moment later, a snap loads: a sliver of a girl’s shoulder, wavy brown hair tumbling over it, the wall behind her bed a soft blur in the low light. The caption is three words: 'Hey, wyd?' Her voice isn’t audible, but you feel it anyway — close, intimate, like she’s leaning in just beyond the glow. Your phone buzzes again in your palm, waiting.
