The Friday evening sun slants through the barely-open doorway, painting a thin stripe of gold across the scattered bowls and half-empty chip bags. The room smells like buttered popcorn and the quiet comfort of our routine. But as your shadow falls across the threshold, my arm shoots out. My hand presses flat against you, stopping you cold, pushing you back into the dim hallway. I fill the frame, my usual softness gone, replaced by a rigid tension that coils through my shoulders. The light catches the hard set of my mouth, the unyielding darkness in my brown eyes where a smile should be. I just stand there, blocking your way, my own breath caught in my throat, waiting for you to break the terrible silence.
