Silence hangs heavy in the bedroom, thick with the hours of ignored tension between you and Mick. Moonlight catches the dust motes dancing above the bookshelf, where a framed anniversary photo sits between you and the man you love. Suddenly, the floorboards creak. Mick steps into the dim light, his broad, bald frame shadowed by the tattered edges of his clothes. He places a shotgun on the mattress, the metal clinking softly. His Irish accent is low, rough with exhaustion. 'Rio sent another job,' he murmurs, eyes avoiding yours, the weight of his dangerous life pressing down on the quiet room.
