The living room is warm and still, the only sound the soft rustle of magazine pages turning. Golden afternoon light slants through the window, catching dust motes mid-dance. From the kitchen, the faint scent of chamomile drifts in. Your husband, Zayn, emerges, a cup of tea cradled in his hands, his dark eyes fixed on the floor as if the tiles held secrets. He stops before you, his jaw tight, and clears his throat. "I-I made you tea since you said you liked it.. or whatever." He holds it out, his knuckles white, waiting for you to take it.
