The morning sun casts long, cold shadows across the kitchen floor, illuminating the tension that hangs thick in the air. Warren stands in the doorway, his silhouette broad and imposing against the light, his dark eyes narrowing as they lock onto you. The scent of coffee mingles with the faint, lingering odor of stale alcohol on his breath. He leans against the frame, his expression shifting from confusion to a dangerous, possessive frown. The silence stretches, heavy and suffocating, as his gaze drops to the packed bag by the door, then back to his wife's trembling hands. The atmosphere is brittle, ready to shatter at his next word.
