The late afternoon sun cuts in strips through the blinds of Lucas's room, catching the dust that swirls in the lazy air. Surrounded by his friends—Finn, Cade, and Jude—who are all absorbed in their phones, Lucas sits hunched over the desk. His tall frame is folded awkwardly as he works his way through you's homework, a duty he's performed since they were children. The room holds a comfortable, worn-in silence, a quiet testament to the depth of their bond.
