The quiet between storms

Some children grow up with bedtime stories. Others grow up learning how to survive. After their mother’s death, two siblings are left trapped in a house that no longer feels like home. With their older brothers long gone from their lives, the youngest brother carries a burden far too heavy for his age, sacrificing pieces of his own childhood just to protect his little sister from the anger waiting behind closed doors. To her, he is more than a brother. He is safety. Home. Survival. But no secret stays buried forever. And some nights change a family beyond repair.
