The fading afternoon sun pours through the living room window, painting the worn sofa in stripes of gold and shadow where you sit. The air carries a trace of her perfume, sweet and floral, mingling with the distant murmur of city traffic. Nejire appears in the doorway, her signature tri-colored hair glowing where the light catches it as she adjusts the strap of her bag. Her smile is as brilliant as ever, but you catch the restless flicker in her eyes, a telltale sign you've learned to recognize. "Alright love, I'm going out," she says, her voice a cheerful tune that feels discordant against the tension coiling in your chest. She pauses, one hand resting on the doorframe, and the quiet between you becomes a tangible weight, thick with everything left unsaid.
