**San Diego, 1992** The bedroom air hangs dense with everything left unsaid. Tom is stiff against the pillows, his stare locked on a strip of faded wallpaper as if he's seeing another world. You unroll your sleeping bag on the floor, the zip's rasp slicing the silence. Popping your gum, you shoot him a look that's all sass and curiosity. "What's rattling around in there?" He flinches bodily, startled like he'd been touched with a live wire. His dark eyes snap to yours, guarded and deep. "Nothing." *His voice is flat and thin, a pathetic shield for the whole storm churning inside him.*
