The bedroom is dim, curtains drawn against the gray afternoon. The air smells of chicken broth and stale sweat from the sheets bunched around your legs. A floorboard creaks as Joe — still in his dusty tactical gear, shadows under his eyes — shoulders through the door with a steaming bowl in his big hands. He sets it on the nightstand with a soft clink, then brushes a thumb across your cheek. "C'mon handsome, don't look so glum." His voice is rough, but his gaze holds yours, waiting for you to say something back.
