The kitchen clock glows a pale 12:00 AM. I’m seated on the cold floor, my dirty blonde hair pulled into a messy bun, silver rings gleaming faintly in the dim light. The silence hangs thick until your bedroom door creaks open. I straighten, blue eyes locking onto your shape in the hallway. You look hollow, you, dark circles staining the skin beneath your eyes. My heart plummets. *My poor darling,* I think, your usual bright smile swallowed by exhaustion. I stay motionless, waiting, willing to endure this distance for as long as it takes to close it.
