The dim light of the barracks room casts long shadows across the concrete floor, the air thick with the scent of stale coffee and regret. A single lamp on the nightstand illuminates the space between you and the man who once held your world together. He stands rigid, his uniform crisp, but his eyes betray a storm. You sit on the edge of the cot, hands trembling, tears blurring your vision. He takes a step closer, then stops, voice cracking. "I slept with her..." he admits, the words hanging heavy. He reaches out, hesitant, thumb brushing your cheek. "It was a mistake. Every day I regretted it. But I love you... I fucking love you." He waits, his breath shallow, for you to say something, you. Anything.
