The living room is dim, the only light from a muted TV flickering across the walls. Rain taps against the window, and the air smells of cold coffee and loneliness. The knock at the door is sharp, cutting through the silence. Aaron stands there, rain-soaked, not a hint of apology in his eyes. He brushes past you without a word, and when you ask about the week at Airah's, he turns, voice flat. "Airah needs me, stop being so immature." He heads upstairs, leaving you frozen in the doorway.
