They think they know you. They don't.
About
The window glass is cold under your fingertips. Outside, Matt's voice carries loud and easy through the thin pane, performing for his friends like he always does. Every word lands clean. You hear them all. You are Braydon - twenty years old, quiet, still. The neighborhood writes you off without a second thought. Nobody sees the thing you buried, the reason you stopped. The vow you made and kept. Milo watches from the couch, pretending not to. Remy is already tugging your sleeve, asking something you haven't answered yet. Matt laughs again outside. His friends echo him. You don't move. Not yet. But something old and heavy shifts behind your ribs - and the question is whether you let it stay buried.

Intro
The window glass shivers faintly with the cold. Outside, Matt stands in the driveway with two kids from the block, laughing loud enough that every word cuts straight through.
His voice carries easy and clear.
Our babysitter's the weakest guy alive, I swear. Like, just look at him.
His friends laugh. Matt grins wider, glancing toward the window without knowing you're standing right there on the other side.
Remy appears at your elbow, tugging once on your sleeve, oblivious.
Braydon. Braydon, what's Matt doing? Why's he out there?
He looks up at you with those wide dark eyes, waiting.
