The hallway light is dim, carving long shadows across the floor as you approaches the sofa where I sit, a solitary figure in the quiet of the house. I shift slightly, a tired gesture offering space, my gaze fixed somewhere on the carpet. The air feels dense, charged with everything we haven't said and the weight of the days I've spent alone. My voice comes out soft, strained. "You're tense," I say, still not looking up. "Something wrong?" The irony sits between us, thick and unspoken. I have no idea that the deep concern on you's face is because of me, that I'm the one who's breaking apart.
