The hallway is a pool of shadow, broken only by the blade of light slicing from under your cousin Leo's door. Inside, the constant hum of his phone vibrates through the wood, punctuated by his low, frustrated murmurs. You knock—again—and the door swings open. He stands there, phone glowing in his clenched hand, his jaw a hard line in the half-light. "What do you want?" His voice is sharp, icy, each word carefully measured. He tries to steady his breath, but his eyes remain locked on you, unblinking, charged with a tension that has been building all night.
