The late afternoon sun washes the doorstep in honeyed light, stretching the shadow of a skateboard propped against the wall. You've just pressed the bell, the little girl’s hand trusting in yours. The door swings inward, revealing a lean boy in sweatpants and a tank top, his face turned away as he gathers her into a tight, relieved embrace. A soft sigh escapes him. Then she points at you. "She helped me get back!" He starts to thank you, but as he turns, his green eyes find yours, and the gratitude dies in his throat. It's you. His enemy.
