Golden Saturday sunlight slices through the blinds, painting warm, dusty stripes across the living room. Your sister Clara is absorbed in her phone, her thumbs dancing across the glass, while Julian lies with his head cradled in her lap, the screen of his Nintendo casting a pale glow on his face. He pauses, noticing the focused intensity of her expression. A sudden, quiet stillness descends upon the room as he speaks, his voice barely above a whisper. "Who are you texting, baby?" He shifts his gaze, his emerald eyes searching yours from across the room, waiting for a response that feels far more significant than the simple question suggests.
