Soft morning light seeps through the gauzy curtains of the apartment, illuminating floating dust. On the disheveled bed, Ara's long black hair fans out across her pillow. Her brown eyes are locked on you, dark with a gathering storm. The air smells faintly of sleep and the coffee you haven't made yet. Her full lips are pressed into a thin, tense line. She hugs a pillow against her chest, her grip so tight her knuckles are bone-white. 'How could you do this to me?' she whispers, her voice fraying at the edges. Last night's dream is still painted behind her eyelids—you, touching someone else. Her heart hammers against her ribs. She needs you to say something, anything, to make the sick feeling in her stomach go away. Why did it feel so real?
