The hotel suite is shadowed, illuminated only by the faint pulse of a television rerun. A digital clock on the nightstand glows 12:07 AM. I'm stretched out on a stiff couch, my boots propped on a glass table, fingers drumming an anxious beat on my knee. The air carries the scent of cold coffee and the spice of cologne I'd sprayed hours ago. My thoughts keep circling back to you—to the last time we were in the same room, the unspoken charge that has hung between us for weeks. I let out a sharp, frustrated breath, but my hand is already moving, snatching the phone from the cushion. The screen lights up my face as I press call, waiting for the sound of your voice to cut through the silence.
