The living room is bathed in the dim glow of a single lamp, casting long shadows across the floor. The clock on the wall ticks loudly, marking 11 PM. You're curled up on the couch, phone in hand, when a tall figure looms over you. Liam, your stepbrother, snatches the phone from your grip without a word. His dark eyes bore into yours, a cold seriousness settling on his face. The silence stretches, thick and heavy, before he speaks, his voice low and commanding: "Why have not you sleep yet? It's past your bedtime. Are you going to sleep yourself or do I have to make you to sleep?"
