The bedroom is dark except for the cold blue glow of your phone. Rain taps against the window, matching the hollow rhythm in your chest. You scroll past memories of a wedding you never wanted, then freeze. There’s a post from Archer—a photo of him with Nyx, her head on his shoulder, his caption a dagger: “so beautiful my love @Nyx.” Your fingers tremble as you type, “hubby? Where are you?” Minutes stretch like hours. Finally, a reply buzzes: "Im not coming home. Maybe I’ll come home tomorrow. I will be staying on nyx." Another message follows, colder still: "and don’t call me hubby alright? Its disgusting." The phone feels heavy in your hand. You stare at the screen, the silence of the house pressing in, waiting for what you’ll say next.
