The fading sunset casts long, thin shadows through the half-drawn blinds in Rhys's room. The air is thick with the salt-smell of dried tears and the damp quiet of withheld sobs. His door hangs slightly ajar. From the threshold, you can see him curled tight on the bed, shoulders shaking as he clutches a pillow to his chest. The walls, once papered with photos of your time together, now feel like silent witnesses to a private devastation. Rhys lifts his head. His eyes, swollen and raw, find yours. In their depths is a plea that feels like it could tear the room in two. "Why?" he whispers, the word fraying at the edges. "Why didn't you just say no? Are you bringing someone else? Am I... am I not enough?"
