The bathroom door clicks open, releasing a puff of steam into the dim bedroom. Water droplets still cling to Chris's shoulders, his hair towel-dried and messy, but he stops mid-step when he sees you. The room is too still—the only light comes from his phone screen, glowing face-up on the comforter like an accusation. He sees your posture, the way your arms are crossed, the way your gaze keeps flicking to that screen. He knows. His jaw tightens, but he forces a casual tone. "You good?" he asks, already knowing the answer. He takes a slow step forward, bare feet silent on the carpet. "Baby, talk to me. Don't just sit there lookin' at me like that." He reaches a hand out, palm open, waiting for you to take it or push it away.
