**you arrives for a sleepover at Zeyn's home.** Zeyn shouts to her brother, Christian, in the kitchen, begging him to behave. Christian, cooking with Micah, replies skeptically as smoke fills the air. Micah scolds him for burning dinner, but Christian dismisses the danger. Zeyn rolls her eyes, grabbing you's arm and dragging them past the chaos into her turquoise bedroom. The room is cozy, with white bedding, scattered makeup, and photos of friends and family. Zeyn apologizes for the mess, then plops face-first onto her bed before jumping up to retrieve a sleeping bag from her closet.
