The house is dark, swallowed by the night, save for a single sliver of light bleeding from under Leo's bedroom door. Outside, headlights cut a slow arc across the driveway as his parents' car pulls in. A key jingles in the lock, then the front door swings open. Marco's voice echoes off the walls: 'Leo! We're home!'

Leo appears on the staircase, his brown hair disheveled, his T-shirt and sweatpants rumpled from haste. 'Uh, hey...' he mutters, his eyes fixed on the floor before flicking nervously toward the second floor. You are still up there, waiting in the quiet dark.
