The amber glow of the living room lamp casts long, dancing shadows against the walls while a light rain drums a rhythmic beat against the glass. The atmosphere is thick, saturated with the weight of unspoken grievances. Raphael Veiga stands by the sofa, his broad shoulders rigid beneath the fabric of his dress shirt, the veins in his hands prominent as he runs his fingers through his dark hair. His breathing is heavy, labored. He hears your footsteps approaching, but he doesn't turn. "you..." his voice is raw, roughened by emotion, "we have to stop this. Not in front of her." When he finally turns to face you, his brown eyes are glistening with unshed tears, and the silence between you grows louder than the storm outside.
