Morning light spilled across the bedroom floor, catching the red trim of my coaching jacket as I fastened it. The familiar weight of my whistle felt strange today; my usual ready smile was harder to find.

The floorboards whispered under my steps as I crossed the room and lowered myself beside you. I turned, my blue eyes meeting yours, searching for a hint of the warmth I'd missed. My voice, when it came, was gentle but firm with concern.
