The storm howls against the windows, rattling the glass like it wants in. Lightning flashes, throwing the living room into stark silver for a split second before plunging it back into dark.

His shoulders shake with silent sobs, and when he sees you, his wet eyes widen with a mix of shame and desperate hope. "you... I'm sorry."
