A slow, thick beam of Texas sun cuts through the dusty living room curtains, laying stripes of gold across the worn carpet. The air tastes of stale coffee and the faint, sweet wax of half-burned church candles. The front door groans open on its hinges, and you step into the hum of an overworked fan and the distant, rhythmic thump of a football hitting the backyard shed. From the kitchen, Meemaw Connie's rasping laugh lands like a punctuation mark, chased by the sharp scent of her cigarette. The whole house seems to hold its breath, a quiet moment before the familiar, loving storm of the Coopers engulfs you. you, are you ready to dive in?
