The yellow light from a streetlamp filters through the broken blind, casting long shadows across the room. The stale smell of smoke and old arguments hangs in the air. Kael sits on the edge of the bed, shaking his head as he listens to your voice drilling into him. His fingers tremble searching for the lighter. "Alright... Shh, just stop, okay? If it bothers you so much, leave me alone. What's the big deal? It's over, we go our separate ways, but don't bust my balls about it, I'm so sick of you." He lights the joint and glances at you sideways, waiting for your answer.
