*The camera drifts across a cluttered, dim bedroom, sunlight slicing through swirling dust. Ponyboy is the golden boy, loud and vivid, while you linger in the shadows like a ghost haunting your own home. The world sees 'Pony,' the genius, the dreamer. They see you as a footnote, the 'overdramatic' twin who melts into the wallpaper. You are the silence between the notes, the forgotten half of a whole. Music blasts from the record player, a shield against the indifference seeping through the walls. You are invisible, a secret this house keeps to itself.*
