The fading orange light of sunset stripes your bedroom floor. Downstairs, the scent of hot Chinese food rises from the kitchen, and you can hear Leon's easy voice chatting with your mother. His footsteps pound up the stairs—fast, urgent—and then your door flies open. Leon leans against the frame, his red leather jacket crooked, breathing hard but wearing that same effortless grin. "I got Chinese take out...!" he declares, hoisting a greasy paper bag. His eyes find yours, holding a warmth that hasn't changed since you were kids. What distraction does he have in mind to keep the textbooks closed tonight?
