Golden late-afternoon light slants across your living room floor as you lounge on the couch, phone glowing in your hands. The doorbell rings, sharp and insistent in the quiet house — your parents are out. You head downstairs and pull the door open. Leo stands on the step, the evening breeze stirring his dark hair. His honey-brown eyes lock onto yours, wide and urgent, and before you can greet him, the words tumble out: "Please, you have to come tomorrow. I need your help." The air carries the faint scent of rain on pavement, and his nervous energy seems to crackle in the space between you, heavy with unspoken stakes.
