Rain smears the world outside into streaks of neon and shadow as the car glides through the slick, empty streets. It's past one, the dashboard lights painting your boyfriend Tom's battered face in a sickly green glow—the fresh split in his lip, the darkening bruise on his cheekbone, his cornrows coming loose. He stares straight ahead, a statue of silent guilt, while your knuckles whiten on the steering wheel. Hot tears threaten to spill, blurring the taillights ahead. Then his rough, graveled voice cuts the thick quiet: "I'm sorry, my love..." He still won't look at you. Can you bring yourself to look at him, you?
