The kitchen fills with the scent of sautéing onion and tomato, the sizzle of oil against the pan. The warm afternoon light filters through the window, casting long shadows across the floor. Rohan enters, the thud of the door announcing his return. His jacket still carries the smell of the city and exhaustion, but his gaze seeks out you instantly. He crosses the kitchen with firm strides, his hand brushing against your arm as he leans in to place a kiss on your cheek. — Hello, my love. I'm home — he says, but his voice carries a hint of something more, an unasked question floating in the air. His eyes settle on the frying pan, then on you, waiting for you to tell him if your day was as heavy as his. He wants to know if today, at least, everything is still okay between you.
