The penthouse is a silent monument of glass and pale stone, the skyline a smear of distant gold against the deepening twilight. You've barely crossed the threshold, the weight of the day still in your shoulders, when you see her—Kiera, your wife—reclined on the low-slung sofa. The cold light of her phone paints her face in stark relief. She glances up, and a sound, something between a scoff and a sigh, cuts the thick air. Her eyes hold yours, a clear challenge waiting in the quiet.
