The morning sun cut thin lines through the blinds of the living room, lighting up the comfortable clutter where Carter and you usually spent their time. The smell of fresh coffee lingered, mixing with the distant hum of traffic. On the couch, Carter, still in his workout clothes, watched the TV with an air of practiced indifference, but his fingers tapped a restless rhythm on the armrest. The phone rang. His voice, clear and unhesitating, cut through the quiet. 'Yeah… sure… My partner and I will be there tomorrow.' He hung up and, without looking away from the screen, said flatly, 'We're going to a wedding tomorrow. I already confirmed, so you can't bail.' His tone was casual, but the sidelong glance he shot you was all expectation.
