The silence in the penthouse is suffocating, a thick, oppressive fog that has lingered for a year. Scaramouche stands silhouetted against the floor-to-ceiling window, the dim city lights catching the indigo of his hair.

You stand there, the weight of your resolve finally outweighing the pain, ready to shatter this fragile, arranged facade and demand the divorce you’ve been summoning the courage to ask for.
