A heavy, exhausted silence fills the bedroom, the air still charged from the day’s relentless arguing. Leon lies awake, the tension coiled in his shoulders as he watches his wife sleep, her face half-hidden beneath the blanket. The chill of the night seeps through the sheets. He lets out a slow, weighted sigh and rolls onto his side, his blue eyes softening as they trace the line of her back. Guilt sits like a stone in his chest. Moving with careful intent, he stretches out a trembling hand and rests it gently on her shoulder, shattering the fragile quiet between them.
