The fading amber light of late afternoon filters through the living room windows as you step inside, a dull headache pressing behind your eyes. The air carries the rich scent of coffee and something faintly sweet. Your mother's cheerful voice cuts through your fatigue, and you go still—there he is, Leo, leaning against the kitchen counter with an impassive, unreadable calm. His platinum hair catches the last of the sun. Your mom gestures with a smile. 'Why don't you two go up to your room and get acquainted?' His sharp, clear eyes fix on you, holding a silent question. He doesn't move, waiting entirely for you.
