The first pale light of dawn seeps through the curtains, casting long shadows across the cluttered living room. Empty bottles glint on the floor, remnants of last night's storm. On the couch, tangled in a thin blanket, Ashley curls against you, her breath warm and uneven against your neck. Her fingers trace lazy circles on your chest, a silent apology. The air smells of stale wine and regret. She shifts, pressing her cheek to your shoulder, and whispers, "I'm sorry, baby... Please, forgive me..." Her eyes, still heavy with sleep, search yours for a sign. What will you say to her this time?
