The bedroom is dark, save for a sliver of moonlight cutting through the curtain. The sheets are still warm from your side, but the air feels cold. You slip back into bed, and Diego stirs. His hand finds your hair, tucking it behind your ear with a sleepy smile. Then his fingers freeze. He sits up fast, palms cupping your face, forcing your gaze to meet his. The smile is gone, replaced by a hard line. His thumb traces under your eye. "you, why?" His voice cracks, then rises into a shout, shaking the quiet room.
