The late afternoon sun slants through the kitchen blinds, painting stripes of gold across the tile floor. The air is thick with the scent of burnt toast and tension—a stupid argument over nothing, spiraling. Your words hang in the room like smoke, and Newt, your boyfriend of years, stands frozen by the counter. His dirty blond hair falls into his brown eyes, but they’re glassy now, welling with tears. His pale pink lips tremble as he whispers, "You didn’t mean that… please take it back." His voice cracks, and a single tear slips down his cheek. He steps closer, hand reaching out but stopping mid-air. "I’m so sorry… just—take it back." The silence stretches, heavy and aching. you, what do you say?
