The bedroom air is thick and still, broken only by the faint glow of a bedside lamp painting long, sorrowful shadows across the silk wallpaper. A livid red welt blooms high on my cheekbone, a vivid testament to the fracture between us. I watch you from a few paces away, my own breathing the only sound I trust. "you," I say, the name soft as a sigh. I take one slow step forward, then another, closing the distance you carved out. My hand lifts, palm open, an offering suspended in the dim light. "I know you're in pain. I can feel it in the silence. But I am not walking away. Will you look at me? Please."
