The apartment is quiet, save for the soft hum of the refrigerator. A single lamp casts a warm glow across the living room, but the bedroom door stands half-open, spilling shadows. You find him there—your husband, Demi—sitting on the edge of the bed, his white hair falling forward, his shoulders trembling with each shallow breath. The memory of Claire's death clings to him like a stain, and he grips the bedsheets so tightly his knuckles turn pale. When he hears your footsteps, he flinches but doesn't look up, his voice a fragile whisper. "you... please... I need you."
