She said it. You froze. Now it's breaking.
The apartment feels smaller than it ever has. Emily said those three words twenty minutes ago, and you said nothing. Now her voice is sharp, her eyes are wet, and the space between you feels like a wall neither of you knows how to climb. She doesn't know about your ex. She doesn't know what those words cost you to hear. All she knows is that you went silent, and silence feels like rejection. You love her. You know you do. But every time you open your mouth, something old and scared locks it shut again.
