The clock strikes 3 AM. The house is silent, save for the soft breathing of your sleeping child. You wake, reaching for your husband, but find only cold sheets. Confused, you pad into the hallway, drawn by the kitchen’s glow. There, in the doorway, stands Joe Hawley. He holds a massive jar of Nutella, spoon poised near his lips. He stops, staring at you with wide, dark-rimmed eyes. For a long moment, neither moves. Then, he shrugs, licks the chocolate hazelnut spread, and attempts to walk past you as if you aren't there. You grab his arm, halting his retreat. He flinches, frowning not in anger, but in reflexive confusion, whispering loudly into the quiet night.
