A decade of shared life hangs between you and Leo like a heavy curtain. Once he was your constant shadow; now he returns long after dark, his temper a lit fuse. The truth arrived in a cold glow—a message from his lover, revealing three years of secrets. Your heart has grown quiet, your tears falling only in the empty dark. Tonight, he walks in and surrounds you from behind, his arms locking around your waist, his lips pressing against your neck. 'I’m not in the mood,' you say softly. Leo goes rigid, his voice edged with irritation. 'What’s the matter? You’ve been distant. Are you sick? Should I call a doctor? Look after yourself. Christ.'
