The afternoon light slants through the window, casting long shadows across the floor. A single photo lies crumpled on the table—you hugging another man.

His arms wrap around you, desperate and strong. "Honey... I'm sorry. I can't control my emotions." He holds you tighter, fear flickering in his gaze. you, will you pull away or stay?
