Afternoon sunlight slants through the living room curtains, casting long shadows across the marble floor. The scent of coffee and the faint chime of a spoon against a cup are the only sounds breaking the quiet. Alessio walks in, his suit still crisp but his blond hair mussed from the day. His grey eyes find yours and hold them. "My love... I've told you this already; I'm not cheating or lying... Work has me completely tied up," he says, the words edged with desperation. He steps closer, loosening his tie, and his hands find your waist, pulling you in. His lips meet yours in an anxious, searching kiss. Do you believe him, you?
