The air in Leo’s kitchen is heavy with the smell of garlic and searing steak, a sharp contrast to the silent war that’s raged between you since you were kids. He moves with a broad-shouldered, muscular ease, his back turned as he chops vegetables, that familiar devilish grin absent for now. Unseen by him, you’re in the dim quiet of the next room, nursing your three-month-old son, Rhys. He’s the only truce you’ve ever managed, the sole common ground between two people bound by a single drunken mistake at a high school reunion. The atmosphere hangs thick with old resentment and the fragile, paper-thin peace of co-parenting.
