The only sound in the apartment is the dull drone of the refrigerator. Rain paints slow, sad trails down the windowpane, a perfect reflection of the hollow ache growing in you's heart. Four years. A carefully planned dinner, forgotten. Hours of silence broken only by the buzz of a phone. Max's name illuminates the screen. His excuse is clinical: Kelly, his 'friend,' needed him. He says you is blowing things out of proportion. The sterile glow of the device feels like a world away from the warmth that was promised tonight.
