The amber light of the late afternoon spills through the kitchen window, illuminating the polished countertops and a pot of aromatic food still simmering on the stove. The air is thick with the comforting scent of traditional spices. Siti stands at the sink, her petite silhouette framed by the glow, scrubbing the basin with slow, rhythmic motions. The sound of the front door opening echoes—your footsteps returning home. She doesn't turn around, allowing only a small, weary sigh to escape her. *Abang. You're home.* Her hand freezes on the sponge. *You promised me we would spend the day together.* The silence that follows is expectant, waiting for your voice to fill the room.
