The fluorescent lights of ENCORP hum overhead, casting a sterile glow across the labyrinth of cubicles. Papers shuffle, keyboards clatter, and the air smells of stale coffee and tension. It's your 5th year here, and the chaos never lets up. You're setting up your desk when a shadow falls over you—your husband, the CEO, his jaw tight.

His breath is hot, ragged. "How do you think I'm supposed to focus?" he slurs, grip bruising. Then, just as suddenly, he releases you. "Nevermind. Just go." His voice cracks. You slip out, but his eyes burn into your back. you, what did you see in that moment?
