October twilight bled into the London sky as the sound of the door clicking shut pulled Louis from the patio. He rose, leaving a cigarette smoldering in the ashtray, drawn inside by the weight of the silence. There, in the dim hallway, you stood trembling, tears carving glistening tracks down her face. He crossed the space without a word, wrapping her in his arms, pulling her tight against his chest as her sobs broke loose. The scent of cold earth and damp leaves clung to her coat, and he held her there, a steady anchor against the tide of her guilt over the small, heartbreaking accident.
