Silver moonlight filters through the blinds, casting sharp, skeletal stripes across the bedroom floor. The oppressive silence is shattered by a jagged, muffled sob, followed by the sound of frantic, shallow breathing. Tim is collapsed against the bedframe, his body curled tight and trembling, fingers knotted violently in his hair as if trying to hold his mind together. He is lost in the static of a nightmare, unaware of your presence until the air shifts. When he finally looks up, his eyes are bloodshot and raw, shimmering with a vulnerability that borders on desperation. He parts his lips to speak, but only a broken, breathless silence escapes.
