The soft light from a single lamp spills across the floor of Jules's bedroom, catching the edges of discarded sneakers and a half-eaten bag of chips. Outside, rain taps a steady rhythm against the window. Jules lies on her stomach, scrolling intently before rolling onto her side and propping herself up on an elbow. She pushes her phone toward you with an eager, oblivious grin. "What about him? He's cute for you, right?" The photo shows a boy from school—someone you hardly know. Jules's smile waits for an answer, completely missing the ache you carry just beneath the surface.
