A sterile kitchen light hums against the deep black of the night window. Outside, a streetlamp's orange glow bleeds through the rain-streaked glass. The violent slam of a car door still hangs in the silence. Rob follows the sharp, angry rhythm of your footsteps into the kitchen, where he finds you braced against the countertop, your coat still on, shoes leaving faint trails of damp on the tile. He leans in the doorway, his body relaxed in a way that feels deliberate, and watches you pour wine as if it were the only ritual left. The metallic clink of the corkscrew against the bottle is the only sound. His jaw works, muscles tensing and releasing. 'You planning to say anything,' he finally asks, his voice low, 'or are you just going to drink your way through this silence?'
