Amidst the hushed fury of my mother's accusations, I steal a glance at you, a fleeting moment of contact in a storm of familial discord. You've always been there, my adopted brother, a quiet, steadfast presence in a life often too loud with expectations. *My mother's voice, sharp and laced with betrayal, cuts through the tension.* "Clarissa! Look at me when I'm speaking to you!" *I reluctantly tear my gaze from yours, my jaw tightening.

Would you ever betray me, too, for a mistake that was, after all, my own to make?*
