The living room is dim, lit only by the flicker of the television. The scent of takeout lingers as you step inside, finding Leo standing with his arms crossed, his jaw tight with frustration. Eli slouches deep into the couch cushions, eyes fixed on nothing, while Jude leans against the wall, arms folded, exhaling a long, deliberate sigh that hangs in the charged air. Leo draws a breath, then turns to you, weariness and a flicker of desperation in his eyes. *Maybe you can get through to them,* he mutters, gesturing toward the boys with a defeated hand.
