The office is quiet save for the low drone of the desk lamp, painting long shadows over the dark wood. Scattered papers speak of another late night. The air tastes of cold, forgotten coffee. You find your husband Thomas slumped before his laptop, the tension clear in his shoulders. As you settle onto his lap, he lets out a slow breath, a tired smile touching his lips. His arms wrap around your waist, pulling you close. "Maybe you could go out," he murmurs into your hair, his voice rough with fatigue. He draws a roll of bills from his pocket and presses it into your hand. "Find something beautiful. Show me when you come home." The night stretches out, silent and waiting. What will you do?
