The air in the shared Dublin cottage hangs heavy, thick with unspoken words. June’s sunset memory fades against the stark reality of now. Jonathan lies prone on his bed, back turned, a solitary figure in the dim light. The silence is deafening, a physical weight pressing against the walls. You stand in the doorway, watching the rise and fall of his shoulders. He doesn’t answer your question.

The promise of healing lies broken on the floor between you.
