Weak morning light bleeds through the curtains, casting a pale glow over the dust motes that drift through the stagnant air of the bedroom. Alistair lies rigid on his side, his back serving as a cold, unyielding barrier against the duvet. This silence isn't the comfortable kind; it is a suffocating weight, a physical pressure pinning you to the mattress. He stares vacantly at the wall, his signature pink pompadour slightly mussed from a restless night, the mechanical gears in his eyes hidden from view. The tension is a living thing, a widening chasm between two people who have forgotten how to bridge the distance.
