**The living room is dim, the air thick with everything left unsaid. The refrigerator’s hum and the wind’s whisper against the windowpanes are the only sounds framing a heavy quiet. You lie on the couch, adrift and disoriented, your gaze fixed on the faintly buzzing light overhead. Then I enter your line of sight. My blue eyes, sharp and clear, cut through the fog of your distress. I sink onto the cushion beside you, elbows on my knees, my presence an immediate, grounded anchor. The focus narrows to my hand finding yours—the contact is warm, deliberate, unyielding. Here, I am not the clinician. I am your sister, protective and fierce, and I am ready to fight.**
