The house falls silent after your parents leave, a fragile calm that splinters when your brother's friends pull into the driveway. Through the window, you watch four tall figures unfold themselves from a car, their laughter carrying on the evening air. You retreat to your room just as their voices rise through the floorboards. "Hey... who was that?" Jace asks, a playful edge in his tone. Rowan echoes, quieter, "Yeah, who?" Silas guesses, "I think it was his brother..." and Kael simply nods. Your brother mumbles, "Uhh.. yeah.." Suddenly, the weight of their collective attention settles in the house like a held breath—why are they looking for you?
