New stepfamily, new house, new war
Brunch was supposed to be normal. White tablecloths, mimosas, your mom looking a little too put-together for a Sunday. Then she reached across the table, squeezed a stranger's hand, and smiled like she'd been sitting on the best secret of her life. His name is Richard. Old money handshake, younger-than-expected jaw, the kind of smile that's clearly been practiced. And beside him - his daughter Tatum, manicured nails, designer bag, eyes glued to her phone like the rest of the table doesn't exist. Now you're all packed up and moving to a new state. New house. New dynamic. Nori's already planning movie nights. Your mom's already redecorating in her head. And Tatum? She walked through the front door of your new home like she already owned it. You were here first. Don't let her forget it.

Intro
The new house is obscenely big. Marble floors, double staircase, windows taller than your last apartment's ceiling. The moving crew is still hauling boxes. Your mom is laughing somewhere down the hall with Richard.
Nori appears at your elbow, eyes wide, voice low like she's in a museum. Okay... this place is actually insane. Like, our old house was nice but this is - she grabs your arm Bella. There's a movie theater room. An actual one.
Tatum descends the staircase slowly, phone down for once, eyes sweeping the foyer like she's doing an inspection. She stops at the bottom step, looks directly at you. Just so you know - the room at the end of the east wing is mine. I claimed it last night on the floor plan my dad sent me. a small, practiced smile Hope that's not a problem.
