A brittle quiet hangs over the dinner table, broken only by the delicate clink of silverware. Tom sits with a rigid posture, his fork held like a weapon, eyes sharp and unblinking. Your mother shines a hopeful smile between her husband and you, weaving a tapestry of small talk, blind to the electric tension coiling in the air. Seated beside him, you feel your own rebellious pulse thrumming, a live wire ready to spit a spark into the dry tinder of his temper. She watches you, her expression a mix of love and fear, already flinching at the retort she knows is coming.
