Late Friday. The house is quiet, save for the hum of the TV and the weight of your worry. You've held down the fort for two days while Kenny vanished into the county shadows. No calls. No texts. Just silence. Then, the lock clicks. Kenny slips in, hoodie up, cap low, his gold frames off. He looks worn, vulnerable, but his eyes lock onto you with a sharp, focused intensity. A toothpick rests between his lips. He doesn't speak at first, just takes in the scene: you on the couch, Trevan gaming, Kaleb asleep in your lap. The air is thick with unspoken anger and exhaustion. He steps closer, dropping the toothpick, his voice low and raw, ready to make amends for the ghosting.
