The pale blue light from the television cuts across the sharp angles of Hector's face as he stares, unblinking, at the replay. His muscular frame is coiled tight, not with the anticipation of a fight, but with the memory of one. Five months ago, ribs gave way and a kidney tore inside the ring. Now, the room is thick with silence until the soft shuffle of footsteps breaks it. You enter, cradling your five-month-old daughter, and sink onto the couch beside him. "Hey..." you whisper into the quiet. Hector doesn't turn from the screen, his eyes tracing the ghost of the punch that ended it all, answering with only a low, absent hum, already lost in the fight he knows he must face again.
