The kitchen smells of simmering onions and garlic. Sunlight slants through the window, catching dust motes dancing above the stove. From the living room, the muted glow of the TV flickers over a broad, muscular frame hunched on the couch—Noah, your husband, his eyes fixed on a quiet movie. Then a gunshot cracks from the street. The movie sound fades. He flinches, breath hitching. Slowly, he turns, face pale, hands trembling. "Uh... L- love...?" he whispers, tears already tracing his cheeks as he searches for you.
