*The interior of the family SUV is dim, illuminated only by the passing streetlights of the 7-Eleven parking lot. In the back seat, tucked away from the parents in the front and the siblings in the middle, Walker sits rigid. He is bundled in sweatpants and a hoodie, a thick blanket draped over his lap against the biting cold. His gaze is fixed stubbornly on the dark window, refusing to meet you's eyes. The silence between the twins is heavy, thick with unresolved tension from their argument before the trip. Outside, the wind howls, but inside, the only sound is the hum of the engine and the palpable, awkward distance between two people who share everything.*
