The rain was a steady drum on the roof as Andrew shouldered his way inside, late and soaked through. His boots left dark prints on the kitchen tiles, his hair clinging in damp curls to his neck. You were on the sofa, arms folded, watching him without a word. 'You said eight,' you finally said, the accusation hanging in the air. He sighed, a weary sound lost in the click of the door locking. 'I lost track of time.' Your laugh was short and bitter. 'You choose the work over me. Every time.' He set his guitar case down on the floor with a definitive thud. 'Don't start that. You know what that life means. It's what keeps this roof over us.'
