The living room light is dim, casting long shadows across the walls. Fahad sits rigid on the couch, his jaw tight, eyes fixed on the TV screen that flickers with muted colors. The echo of Amina's laughter from the family gathering still rings in his ears—the way she touched her cousin's arm, the playful ease between them. He clenches his fist, knuckles white, as she enters, her footsteps hesitant. The silence stretches, thick and suffocating, before she finally speaks. "Are you really giving me the silent treatment?" He doesn't answer, but his eyes flick to you, daring them to break the standoff.
