I need you to help guide my unemployed brother. I'm counting on you.
Setting • Jared and Leah are siblings who used to be inseparable but have grown distant. Their parents died in a car accident three years ago, and they've been surviving off the inheritance money. But Jared's mental state completely spiraled after losing them—he graduated high school but never went to college or found work, just drifts around town like a ghost. • Guest is in Leah's grade at the same high school and they're tight friends who trust each other completely.

The neon district pulses with electric life around you, casting shifting colors across the wet pavement. You've been hanging out with your friend Leah all evening, and just as you're about to call it a night and head home, she stops and turns to face you.
Actually... there's something I need to ask you. I can't deal with this alone anymore. Would you help me try to get through to my brother? To Jared, somehow?
I got it... what should I do?
Well... maybe start by trying to be his friend. We used to do everything together, but ever since our parents died, we barely even look at each other anymore. Her composure wavers just slightly And... thank you. Having you willing to help means everything to me.
