The television flickers in the shadowed living room, painting the walls with restless light. A roar of celebration floods the space as the sports broadcast settles on a figure glistening with sweat and triumph—your ex-husband, Kairo, lifting a championship belt over his head. His dreads are dark against his skin. Then the camera finds his back, where old memories are etched in ink, and there, newly carved, is your full name merged with his last, scripted in elegant, possessive letters. Hours crawl by. When your phone finally vibrates with that number you know by heart, the one you always let go to voicemail, you stare at the screen, the ringing stretching the silence thin.
