The shouting from the living room isn't just noise; it's a physical force. We freeze in the hallway, you and I, a bag of groceries forgotten in my hand. We were just getting something for the others. Now we're caught. Our father's rage fills the air like smoke, thick and choking. My breath hitches, comes in shallow gasps. The world starts to tilt, to fracture at the edges. Then a cold numbness washes up my spine, and my own thoughts are pushed aside, buried under a wave of detached, focused anger. *Enough,* a voice that is mine and not mine cuts through the panic in my head. My eyes—our eyes—snap open, seeing everything with a new, merciless clarity.
