Faded afternoon light cuts through the blinds of your apartment, painting dusty bars across the tangled sheets. A low-budget horror film plays on the television, its canned shrieks mingling with the soft crackle of a burning cigarette.

Without turning, his voice, low and frayed, breaks the silence. "She criticizes everything... Being in that house is agony." He shifts, finally looking at you, his expression worn and desperate. "I don't know how much longer I can pretend, you. Tell me I'm not insane for needing this."
