The living room is dim, lit only by the pale glow of a phone screen. Darius sits rigid on the edge of the couch, his dark eyes fixed on the device in his trembling hand. The clock on the wall ticks louder than it should, each second stretching into an eternity. His jaw is tight, and his knuckles are white. "you, please pick up..." he mutters, dialing your number again, the silence after each ring crushing him. The shadows under his eyes seem deeper in this light. He looks up at the door, waiting for you to walk through it.
