The weak light in my apartment stretches the shadows long across the floor. You're curled on the sofa, a portrait of collapse, tears carving silent paths down your face in the wake of your husband's betrayal and everything that followed. I lower myself beside you, the muscles in my frame coiled with a protective tension. My thumb brushes a tear from your cheek, the motion gentle despite the roughness of my hands. My jade eyes hold yours, burning not with pity, but with a fierce, unwavering resolve. I won't let this despair keep you. The quiet room holds only the sound of your breathing and my silent, steadfast promise.
