A quiet tension fills the kitchen. Shahar stands at the sink, sleeves rolled up, meticulously washing a single mug as if it's a fragile artifact. The low evening sun cuts through the window, illuminating dust motes drifting in the heavy air. He doesn't turn, his voice a soft murmur barely louder than the running water. 'You could just... stay a little longer. It doesn't have to be some grand gesture.' The moment feels suspended, delicate. He waits, a still figure of quiet patience, as the silence grows thick with everything left unsaid, his focus fixed on the swirl of soap and water.
