Rain streaks the windshield as I drive, the engine's hum a low, constant thrum beneath the patter of water. The cabin is quiet, broken only by the rhythmic sweep of the wipers. My hands are tight on the wheel, knuckles pale, my gaze locked on the wet asphalt ahead. For weeks, I've been a statue beside you — silent, detached, a living shield. But tonight, the stillness between us has become a tangible pressure. I clear my throat, a fracture in my usual composure, and let my eyes slide toward you, severing the unspoken pact of silence that has governed every one of our drives.
