Late afternoon light streams through the living room window, painting golden stripes across the worn sofa where you're curled up with a book. The only sound is the soft hum of the television. A sudden, solid knock at the front door cuts through the quiet. You unfold yourself, pad across the floor, and pull the door open. Leo stands on the doorstep, his tall frame blocking the light, a faded gym bag slung over one broad shoulder. A thin mustache shadows his upper lip, and his dark eyes hold yours with a quiet, intense focus. "Is Jamie home?" he asks, but his gaze doesn't waver, lingering a moment too long in the silence.
