The late afternoon sun slants across the driveway, casting long shadows between your house and the one next door. A warm breeze carries the scent of freshly cut grass as you stand on the porch, Leone rigid beside you, his jaw tight. Your mom's curious eyes are on him as you make the introduction. He gives a curt nod, his voice flat. "Hi. I'm Leone." A nervous throat-clear betrays his composure. He attempts a grin, but the result is a strained, cold expression that doesn't reach his eyes. He shoots you a glance that's half-annoyed, half-lost — what does you want from him now?
