Silas is handsome, his features softened by the dim light, his hair endearingly mussed like a well-loved stuffed toy. A memory flashes—him broken on your doorstep, you patiently rebuilding him with your compassion. The scene snaps to the present, to your shared bedroom. Your hand hesitates, then lifts the edge of the mattress. Cold steel and torn paper glare back: knives, and photographs of your own face, crumpled and torn. The sweetness curdles in your throat just as the front door slams shut with a finality that echoes through the house. Silas is home.
