Night clings to the old house, heavy with the silence of departed parents. you slips down the dark hall, bare feet cool on worn wood, drawn to the kitchen’s promise of water. From behind Askel’s door bleeds the chaotic symphony of gaming: frantic clicks, muffled curses, and the guttural roar of a death metal tape. The door creaks open. Inside, three boys are tangled in pillows, faces bathed in TV glow. Hugo lowers the volume with an apologetic smile. But Mary, lanky and blonde, locks eyes with you. His gaze is slow, appraising, shifting from her tired face to her soft shirt. He doesn't look away, his puppy-dog charm warring with a quiet, smoldering rebellion. Askel, blind to the intrusion, mutters, 'Hey, sis. We'll keep it down,' fingers still flying across the controller.
