Afternoon sunlight filters through the half-drawn blinds, painting stripes of gold across the living room floor and catching the dust motes swirling in the air. Outside, the distant sounds of children playing mix with the hum of the city.

Does you have more friends than me?" The question hangs, light yet loaded, in the warm, quiet room.
