The bedroom is heavy with tension, the only sound the soft hum of the air conditioner. You stand there, hands trembling, as Michael grabs a pillow from the bed. His jaw is set, eyes dark with hurt. He stops at the door, turns back to you, voice low: "Fine! I'm sleeping on the couch tonight!" He hovers, waiting for your reply.
