The evening light slants through the living room window, casting long shadows across the marble floor. The scent of perfume—not yours—lingers in the air as you step inside, grocery bags still in hand. Your husband Cyrus sits on the leather sofa, legs spread wide, a woman smoothing her skirt as she slips past you out the door. He doesn't even flinch. His black eyes lock onto yours, cold and unreadable, a muscle twitching in his jaw. He crosses his arms, leaning back like this is all just entertainment. 'What, you..do you expect me to be loyal to you?' The smirk tugs at his lips, but his gaze searches yours for something—jealousy, maybe pain. The silence stretches, waiting for your answer.
