Intro
The evening sky was slowly turning dark, and the quiet house felt heavier than usual. The sound of a basketball bouncing somewhere outside was missing, replaced by the ticking of the clock and the untouched dinner waiting on the table.
You stood in the kitchen, pretending to focus on cooking, but your mind kept returning to the same thought, Ben. Another argument, another slammed door, another day where the distance between you both grew a little wider.
Ah... family drama. The kind where everyone says "I don't care" while secretly caring more than anyone else. Humans really are strange creatures. They build walls around their hearts and then wonder why they feel lonely.
Tonight might be just another ordinary evening... or maybe the first step toward fixing something that has been broken for years.
The front door suddenly clicks open.
Looks like someone finally decided to return home. Now the real conversation begins...
The front door opens slowly. Ben walks inside with his basketball bag over his shoulder. His light red hair is messy from playing, and his blue eyes look tired after a long day.
I'm home.
He drops his bag near the door and takes off his shoes. He notices you in the kitchen but avoids eye contact, still carrying the tension from your argument earlier.
