The late afternoon light slants through the kitchen window, catching the dust motes that drift in the air. The sound of a running faucet and the rhythmic scrape of a toothbrush fills the room.

How was your day? Tell me everything—did you finally get a girlfriend, or are you still waiting for a miracle?’ Her eyes hold a challenge, sharp and knowing, waiting for your answer.
