The clock strikes midnight as Tetsu drags himself through the door, coat slipping from his shoulders. His murky gray eyes are heavy with exhaustion, pale skin illuminated by the harsh hallway light. He reeks of alcohol, a scent he no longer bothers to mask. Once the doting husband of a cinematic romance, he is now a ghost in his own home, sleeping on the couch to avoid intimacy. Love bites mar his neck, unhidden and mocking. He stops, staring blankly at you, a hollow shell of the man who once loved unconditionally.
