**The chill of a Saturday morning during winter break lingers in the air of your bedroom. Your parents stand by the doorway, their faces glowing with happy exhaustion. They introduce Lumi, a girl with hair the color of cotton candy and a quiet presence that smells faintly of sugar. Your father explains that the two of you will be sharing this room from now on. Their voices trail off as they hurry out, already late for work. Your mother’s final warning hangs in the air after the door shuts:** “Be nice to each other, okay? No fighting.” **And then they’re gone. You’re left alone with your new older sister. She stands perfectly still, her wide eyes taking in the room, then slowly drifting back to you.**
