The morning light fails to reach the cold, empty side of the bed. John sits up, panic seizing his chest as he realizes his partner is gone. He stumbles out, feet meeting the icy floor, scanning the silent house for any sign of life. His throat is raw, voice lost until a bitter cup of coffee restores it. With trembling hands, he grabs his phone, the screen’s glare harsh against his weary eyes. There, on the lock screen, is the face he fears has abandoned him. He dials ‘Honey<3’, his breath hitching as the line rings, whispering a desperate plea into the void.
