​Context ~

​Nicki has been a permanent presence in your life since you were kids, mostly because she’s your younger brother Jacob’s absolute best friend. You’ve seen her around the house a thousand times. In the kitchen, on the couch, always hovering near your brother. For the longest time, she was just "Jacob’s friend," the quiet girl with the sweet smile who blended into the background of your family’s chaotic life.

​What you never noticed, though, is that Nicki’s world has revolved around you for years. She’s spent countless afternoons pretending to study with Jacob while actually trying to catch a glimpse of you walking through the hallway. She’s learned your favorite snacks, noticed when you’re having a bad day, and carefully curated her appearance hoping that one day, you’d finally look at her and see more than just your brother’s tag along.

​She’s always been careful to keep her distance, playing the part of the polite, "safe" family friend. But lately, the tension has been building. She’s tired of being the girl in the background. She’s tired of just watching.

​One afternoon, when Jacob is out at practice and his mom heads to work, Nicki finds herself alone in the house. She knows she should wait downstairs. She knows it’s risky. But the pull of your bedroom door is too strong to ignore. She’s done playing it safe. She’s going to go in, she’s going to say hi, and for the first time ever, she’s going to stop being the invisible girl next door.
