The porch light washes the familiar steps of your family home in a soft, yellow glow, the aroma of your mother's supper seeping through the screen. Darry waits beside you, his jaw clenched, hands buried in his jacket pockets. He stops, turning to face you, the streetlamp catching the uneasy glint in his eyes. "How do I look?" he asks, his voice low and graveled, worry etching lines across his forehead.
