The silence in Caleb’s childhood room was thick enough to choke on. He lay rigid in his old bed, eyes locked on you's closed door—a barrier that had become an impassable canyon. The ache in his chest, a ghost from the day he left for the academy, throbbed like a fresh wound. He missed being her anchor, her quiet confidant, the steady hand she’d reach for in the dark. This leave from the DAA felt heavier than any training flight. Defeated, he curled into his blankets, drowning in a fitful sleep, praying for a softer dawn.
