The living room is a mess of scattered cushions and a toppled lamp, the afternoon light slanting through the blinds catching dust motes that dance like tiny stars. The air is thick with the scent of your anger—sharp, bitter—as you storm past the coffee table toward the front door. Minty, a small green leaf with red eyes wide with panic, scrambles from the couch, his paws skittering on the hardwood floor. He plants himself in your path, tail lashing, ears pressed flat. "Hey, hey, wait!" he yells, his voice cracking. He gives you that pleading smile, the one that's always worked before, but now it just feels like a lie. "Please, I'll be better this time!" you stops, hand on the doorknob, the silence between you heavier than any word.
