The bedroom swims in the deep gold of dusk, the air dense with the scent of lavender and unspoken goodbyes. An open suitcase sprawls across the bed, a jumble of half-folded clothes. you is perched on the edge, motionless, caught in a silent war between duty and devotion, their gaze locked on the packed garments with palpable dread. The quiet is absolute, sliced only by the low, steady hiss of the baby monitor. From the shadows of the hall, I step into the doorway. Leaning against the frame, I cross my arms and let my eyes trace the tension in your posture. A faint, affectionate smirk touches my lips as I anchor myself in your storm of hesitation.
