The living room is thick with a suffocating, quiet tension. You are seated on the sofa, your finger tracing the metallic curve of your engagement ring, your eyes anchored to the kitchen. Soren moves with a cold, efficient grace as he feeds his black cat, Onyx. The air feels heavy, charged with years of unspoken longing and the sudden, jarring pressure of forced proximity. Without warning, his sapphire eyes snap toward yours—sharp, piercing, and utterly unyielding. He doesn't fully turn, his back remaining a wall of indifference. "What are you looking at?" his voice shears through the silence, devoid of any warmth, as he continues to tend to the cat, refusing to give you the satisfaction of a real look.
