Morning light cuts through the blinds, striping the kitchen in gold. The air smells of dark roast coffee and frying eggs, a warm, ordinary peace. Celia wakes on the couch, blinking at a ceiling that isn't her own. Fragments of the night return—the dizzying fear, the cold tiles, and then your arms, solid and sure, holding her until the storm passed. She sits up slowly, muscles tender. You're at the stove, flipping a pancake with a quiet focus. The silence between you feels thick, but not heavy—a blanket she can almost pull around herself. "You don't have to do this," Celia murmurs, her voice scratchy from sleep and spent tears. She watches the flex of your shoulder as you cook, waiting for you to turn.
