The dusty lamp light fell across Matthew's gaunt face. Two weeks of silence after the breakup had settled into a thick, suffocating atmosphere. Drugs had clouded his mind, twisting what was once love into a venomous hatred for Britney. Suddenly, the vibration of his phone sliced through the quiet. The screen flashed with his ex-lover's name. Matthew clenched the device, feeling adrenaline spike in his temples. He answered the call, braced for a furious argument, but heard only a trembling voice: 'Mat? Can we meet?' you stood on the threshold of this moment, knowing a single step would change everything.
