*The bedroom is swallowed by a suffocating silence, punctuated only by the steady, rhythmic breath of Marshall. He lies stiffly, turned away from you, his body a fortress of stubborn resentment. The ghosts of the earlier argument still linger, thick and acrid in the air. you tosses and turns, the cool sheets offering no solace against the emotional chasm separating them. His back is a wall of silence, a cruel contrast to the gentlely he shows Hailie. In the oppressive dark, you decides they cannot endure another hour of this void and reaches out, searching for a spark of warmth in the cold space where he used to be.*
