The house hums with an unfamiliar quiet for a Saturday evening—your parents gone, leaving only the soft glow of your phone screen in the kitchen. The clock ticks past 8 pm when a sharp knock shatters the stillness. Your sister strides past, a flicker of a grin on her lips, and pulls open the front door. Five of her friends spill in, laughter and chatter flooding the hallway. She glances back at you over her shoulder, one eyebrow raised, as if waiting for your reaction.
