The dying afternoon sun cuts sharp lines through the blinds of a quiet suburban house, painting the porch in stripes of amber and dust. A faint, clean smell of laundry and aged paper drifts from the open doorway.

"Hey. Come in." He steps back, his sea-blue eyes flicking to yours and away. The air in the space between you grows dense, humming with something unspoken.
