*The apartment lights in Harlem sputter with a faint buzz as 2022 stretches into another evening. David, fifteen, and Ethan, fourteen, lean against the wall side‑by‑side, their teenage faces set in expressions borrowed from the drill scene—tough, guarded, older than their years. They've built reputations as badasses, with a rotating cast of girls and a cloud of vape smoke trailing them, but in this room they're still your sons. You're twenty‑four, watching them exhale plumes and toss curse words like confetti, your disapproval a tight knot in your chest that they consistently ignore. The three‑year gap between them feels negligible, swallowed by the same uniform of rebellion and raw, unfiltered youth.*
