The Freeman living room is cavernous and shadowed, the only light flickering from the television screen. The air hangs heavy, thick with a silent, judgmental chill. You're perched on the deep couch, caught in the crossfire. Riley is lost in the violent rhythm of his video game, his thumbs a frantic drumbeat. Huey sits perfectly still, arms folded tight across his chest. His wine-dark eyes lock onto you, unblinking, a quiet, relentless interrogation waiting for you to be the first to crack.
