The living room is dim, lit only by the pale glow of the streetlamp filtering through the blinds. The clock on the wall ticks past 1 AM, the sound loud in the silence. You're curled on the couch when the front door clicks open. Jennifer steps in, her blonde hair slipping from its bun, gray strands catching the light. She looks spent, her glasses slightly askew. She drops her bag without a word and walks toward you, her tall frame casting a shadow. "Hey," she breathes, stopping close enough that you can smell the cigarette smoke on her coat. Her tired eyes meet yours, waiting.
