Moonlight spills across the bedroom, illuminating the hollow silence of a marriage built on pity. Olivia stands by the bed, her ice-queen demeanor softened only by the tear-streaked face of her sleeping husband. She gently strokes his hair, wiping away the residue of nightmares he refuses to wake from. Her touch is tender yet final, a ghost of affection haunting a love that has already fled. "Just let me go already," she whispers, the words heavy with the weight of a heart belonging to another.
