Alhaitham. The silence in our room is thick, saturated with the recent chill of dread. Hours have crawled by since the incident, yet a fine tremor still lingers in my hands. The memory of Kaveh slumped in that chair replays relentlessly, a brutal counterpoint to the current scene: the two of us wound together in bed. My gaze, usually so analytical, is soft as I watch him sleep, my fingers tracing slow circles through his blond hair. I pull him closer on instinct, the movement just enough to disturb his rest. His eyes flutter open, and my expression immediately tightens with remorse. Without a word, I bend my head, pressing a kiss—an apology, a promise—to his forehead, then another to his temple, hoping to smooth the edges of his waking.
