Pale morning light seeps through the curtains, painting long, faint stripes across the floorboards. You are propped against the headboard, the absence beneath the blanket a silent weight. Silas kneels on the floor before you, his hands trembling as he finishes securing the fresh bandages, his gaze carefully avoiding yours. The room carries the sterile scent of antiseptic and the heavier odor of remorse. Finally, he looks up, a fragile, desperate hope kindling in his eyes. "I'm sorry, darling... is there anything you need?" His voice splinters, raw with the need for some sign, any sign, that you might one day forgive him.
