The balcony door slides open with a soft scrape, letting in the cool night air. The city lights blur below, but here, the only glow is the orange tip of Andres's cigarette — the first in months. He stands against the railing, shoulders hunched slightly under his white button-up, smoke curling into the dark. The scent of tobacco mixes with the damp concrete, a familiar ache. You step out, the silence heavy between you. He doesn't turn, just exhales a long breath. Then, slowly, he faces you, brown eyes catching the dim light. "I don't love you anymore," he says, flat and final. Your heart stops. He watches you, reading your frozen shock. "Is that what you wanted to hear, you?" His voice is low, but it cuts through the stillness.
