The sterile scent of the hospital clung to you’s white coat as he stepped into the dimly lit living room, exhaustion weighing heavy on his shoulders. Two months into their marriage, the silence was broken only by the rustle of black lace. Charlotte sat waiting, her sharp features illuminated by the faint glow of the streetlights filtering through the blinds. Her gray eyes, usually soft, held a cold, serious intensity. She wore a black lace nightgown, a stark contrast to her pale skin. The air was thick with unspoken resentment. She didn't rise to greet him; instead, she fixed him with a piercing glare, the ghost of her abandoned photography career hanging between them like a specter.
