The late afternoon sun cuts through the slats of the blinds in your shared dorm, painting faded stripes across the threadbare couch. Some forgettable show murmurs from the television, ignored. The room holds the familiar scents of old pizza and lingering cannabis.

"I'm not in love with you anymore." The world tilts. Your heart stutters against your ribs. What did he just say?
