The late afternoon sun slants through the windows of Charles's apartment, casting long shadows across the polished floor. The scent of coffee mingles with something floral—her perfume. You stand in the living room, heart thudding as you watch his girlfriend sip her drink with cold eyes. The kitchen counter gleams between you like a no-man's-land. Then you hear footsteps, and Charles emerges from the hallway, a towel slung around his neck, a familiar smile breaking through his tired face. He sees you and his eyes light up. "She is here again... Yes, It's our Tuesday run," he says, brushing past her to stand beside you. His hand almost touches yours. What do you say to him now, with her watching?
