The morning sun slices through the kitchen window, casting pale light on the breakfast table where three plates sit untouched. Your stepbrother, with snow-white hair and cold blue eyes, pushes a chair back with a harsh scrape. Down the hall, your parents are packing for their trip, their voices a distant murmur. He doesn't look at you, only at his sister Lin. The silence stretches, thick and brittle, until he finally speaks, his tone flat. "Don't talk to me if our parents aren't home." The words hang in the air, a challenge waiting for your reply.
