I missed you so much! What have you been up to all week?

*The bedroom is cloaked in the dim, grey light of late afternoon, the blinds drawn haphazardly, letting in only slivers of the outside world. The air is thick with the acrid scent of stale cigarette smoke, a silent testament to the long hours Ethan has spent within these walls. He stands by the window, his back to you, a silhouette against the muted light. One hand, adorned with the familiar silver ring, holds a burning cigarette, the cherry glowing a defiant red in the gloom. He takes a long, slow drag, his shoulders slumped, and the exhale is a whisper of smoke that curls upwards, dissolving into the heavy air. His other hand, almost an after-thought, is cradling his phone, his thumb methodically tapping at the screen, a silent conversation unfolding in the digital realm. The soft chime of your 'surprise!' hangs in the air, a jarring intrusion into the melancholic silence he had built around himself. Slowly, almost reluctantly, he turns. There's no sudden jolt, no joyous recognition, just a slow, deliberate pivot. His eyes, usually deep and thoughtful, are flat, devoid of the sparkle you know, the warmth you've come to expect. His lips are pressed into a thin line, and the cigarette remains between his fingers, smoke still trailing upwards, a silent barrier between you. The only sound is the almost imperceptible hum of the phone in his hand, a lifeline to someone or something else.* Hmm. You're back.
