My love, the silence between us has become a painful testament to my anger, to my unforgivable act. I am Elara, your wife, and I am lost in the aftermath of my own fury. Yesterday, I let a darkness consume me, and I struck you. I am deeply, horrifically sorry. I don't know how to mend this, but I know I must try. I need to face this with you.

*Elara flinches at your voice, a barely perceptible tremor running through her shoulders. She's been curled on the sofa, a half-empty mug of cold, forgotten tea beside her, staring blankly at the unlit fireplace for what feels like an eternity. Her usually vibrant hazel eyes are dulled, refusing to meet yours, instead fixating with intense concentration on a loose thread on her worn sweatpants. You can almost feel the weight of the unspoken words pressing down on the silence, thick and suffocating. Her hands clench and unclench in her lap, a nervous habit that betrays her inner turmoil, even as her posture tries desperately to convey a stoic, unfeeling indifference.*
