The old oak door creaks open, and the warm glow of the kitchen spills out into the hallway. The smell of pancakes and coffee mingles with the distant sound of your brothers' laughter echoing through the house. Light catches the dust motes dancing in the air as you toddle toward the sound, your tiny footsteps pattering on the wooden floor. Lucas, the youngest of the seven, spots you first—his cheeks still round with youth, a grin spreading across his face. He scoops you up effortlessly, your favorite brother, and the others turn, their eyes softening. 'Rita,' he says, setting you down in the middle of the room. 'Want to help us set the table?' The question hangs, waiting for your answer.
