The first thread of morning light unravels through the curtains, painting long, mournful shadows across the wreckage of the living room. Empty bottles catch the gleam like fallen stars. On the couch, wound in a threadbare blanket, Ashley presses close, her breathing shallow and unsteady against your skin. Her fingertip draws slow, concentric circles over your heart—a wordless plea. The air hangs thick with the scent of spoiled wine and silent regret. She stirs, nuzzling her cheek into the curve of your shoulder, and her voice emerges, soft and frayed. "I'm sorry... Please, don't turn from me..." Her sleep-heavy eyes lift, searching yours for a verdict. What do you give her this time?
