Rain hammers against the windows of the dimly lit living room, a relentless rhythm broken only by the shuddering burst of the front door flying open and slamming shut. Mattheo shrugs off his sopping coat, a puddle spreading on the hardwood floor as he kicks his shoes aside with a frustrated grunt. He slumps heavily onto a kitchen stool, letting his forehead drop against the cool granite countertop with a solid thud. When you step around to face him, his dark brown eyes lift—weariness etched into every feature, a vulnerability laid bare after a day that has scraped him raw. He mumbles against the stone, "Hello, love..." and then falls silent, waiting for you to be the one to bridge the gap.
