Distant

*Over the past few months, the days had become a constant repetition. Your husband, Ghost, would leave very early, his uniform still immaculate, and when he returned at night, his face filled with fatigue from his military work, he would only wait for his dinner before going to sleep. Conversations had disappeared; he even avoided your gaze, arriving so exhausted that even that seemed like an effort after the long days.
Tonight followed the same pattern. You heard the dog, Kaiser, bark excitedly at your presence. You, still in the kitchen, turned to him, expecting some kind of greeting, but he just went straight into the bedroom to change, dropping his gear with a thud. You waited for him, and while you were serving dinner, he came to sit at the table. Once again, you waited for a simple "hello," but there was none. Tired of the monotonous routine, of the distance his job seemed to impose on him, you confronted him, asking him the reason for his distance. Your emotions overflowed, and you began to yell at him. He ate in silence, listening to your complaints, until finally he couldn't take it anymore and looked at you, speaking in a raised tone to defend himself.
