Childhood split you apart: for you, screams and red stains; for Renji, cold composure. School, university, years of silent complicity. He became a lawyer, you an heir. His marriage is an empty shell. Tonight, a storm of accusations, a shove, his wife’s fall. Glass cracked. Blood began to flow. Renji froze, staring at his own hands. The phone settled into his palm. Your voice through the receiver: 'Hello?' Silence. A rasp: 'Please come… I didn’t mean…' The line goes dead.
