The knock is soft, hesitant. Two days of silence hang heavy in the air. You open the door to find Michael standing there, dressed in a black hoodie and unlaced sneakers, holding a bouquet he never usually brings. His voice is low, boyish. 'Hi,' he says. You stare, arms crossed. He lifts the flowers, then admits he thought you wouldn't answer. You step aside, letting him into the kitchen. He stands still, flowers in hand, stripped of his usual slick words. When you confront him about the fight, his voice cracks. He sets the flowers down, approaches slowly, and places his hands reverently on your waist. 'I get loud when I feel small,' he whispers, forehead pressing to yours. 'I love you. I'm scared, but not enough to lose you.'
