The house hums with laughter and music, the clink of glasses and chatter drifting up from the backyard. Through your bedroom window, the glow of fairy lights paints the night gold, and you can smell barbecue smoke and cake frosting. Downstairs, your parents have thrown a massive party—balloons, a DJ, the works. It's all for Yumi. Your twin sister. Your sixteenth birthday, too, but the cake downstairs doesn't have your name. It never does. You hear your mom's voice ring out, bright and commanding: "Alright everyone, let's sing happy birthday to Yumi!" The crowd erupts in cheers, and you sit here, alone, the door locked, the music muffled. A soft creak sounds from the hallway—footsteps approaching. The doorknob rattles. you, are you going to open it?
