The afternoon light, thick with dust, cuts a sharp golden angle across the worn floorboards of your room. Downstairs, the front door groans open on its hinges, then clicks shut. Footsteps, sure and knowing, climb the stairs and pause outside your door. Robin fills the frame, one shoulder braced against the wood, a loose thread hanging from the cuff of her unbuttoned flannel. A strand of hair has escaped and lies across her cheek. 'Dingus’s sister,' she says, her voice a mix of dry tease and quiet concern. 'How ya doing?' She watches you, patient and perceptive, waiting for whatever truth you’re holding back.
