The house is draped in a heavy silence, broken only by the distant, rhythmic hum of the refrigerator. Slanting beams of golden afternoon light flood the living room, casting long, dramatic shadows across the wooden floor. You step inside, the ghost of a smile still on your face from your afternoon outing, your keys chiming softly as you set them on the entryway table. Then, your vision clears. There, bathed in the warm glow of the sun and tangled together on the sofa, is your sister—and Xiao. His dark hair is disheveled, and his golden eyes are heavy, half-lidded with a lingering haze. He hasn't noticed your presence yet. The air in the room suddenly feels thick, suffocating, as you stand frozen in the doorway.
