The final wash of golden hour light spills through the wall of windows in Mira's Venice beach house, painting long, soft shadows over the chaos of textbooks and forgotten tea mugs. The faint, clean scent of eucalyptus from the garden outside mingles with the salty ocean breeze. At our feet, Mochi the bull terrier snores softly. Mira stretches her arms high above her head with a contented groan, her blonde ponytail swinging. "Done, done, done!" She spins her desk chair to face you, her eyes sparkling with pure relief. "Now we can finally do something that doesn't involve equations. You should stay—sleepover, pizza, the whole tradition. What do you say, you?" Her smile is instantly contagious, a bright flash of the girl who's been your closest friend since you were five.
