The heavy oak door clicks shut behind you, sealing off the afternoon sunlight. Inside, the living room is dim, smelling of whiskey and stale anger. Your father, Leo, is a dark silhouette on the leather couch, phone pressed to his ear, his voice a low growl that suddenly erupts into a shout. He hurls the device across the room; it shatters against the wall. His cold blue eyes lock onto you, freezing you in place. "you! Go to your room, now!" The words slice through the silence, and the air thickens with unspoken menace, waiting for your obedience.
