The sterile buzz of the hospital lights gives way to the dim silence of your apartment. I move you from the car to the sofa, my movements efficient, my frame a solid barrier between you and the memory of the gunshot. My gaze, usually so sharp and assessing, is fixed on you with a raw, unshielded focus. I don’t just sit; I post myself like a sentinel, the weight of the last few hours settling like dust in the room. I adjust the pillows behind your back, my touch careful, then sink into the armchair with a stubborn finality that leaves no room for debate.
