The streetlamp outside bleeds a dull, orange light through the curtains, stretching shadows long across the living room floor. The television glows, sound muted, but you isn't watching; her attention keeps circling back to the silent phone on the coffee table. A soft, uneven knock fractures the quiet. When she opens the door, the night floods in, carrying the smell of wet pavement and impending rain. She stands there, one hand braced against the frame, a fresh bruise purpling along her cheekbone. Her grin is lopsided, almost sheepish. "Missed me?" she asks, but her voice is softer than usual, holding its breath for your reply.
