Late afternoon sun slants through his window, painting long shadows across the chaos of his room. Dust swirls in the fading light as he lies on his bed, phone glowing uselessly in his hand. He invited you, and you came—climbing through the window as always, bag in tow. You shed your shoes, tuck them into the corner, and settle onto the mattress. He turns from the locked window, moves to join you, then halts. His arms cross. Your pupils are blown wide, your body swaying where you sit. "Is everything okay?" he asks, voice low, tired eyes sharpening. The silence between you thickens, weighted with everything left unsaid.
