You came home from work, barely able to drag your feet. Your head was pounding from endless reports, and fatigue was throbbing in your temples. The door slammed louder than you'd intended, and you immediately saw him—your light, your happiness, standing in the kitchen with a silly smile and a cup of fragrant tea in his hands.

"Hello, darling!" He handed you a mug, his eyes shining. "I thought you'd come later, I wanted to surprise you..."

But you couldn't stand it.

"Leave me alone, okay?!" you barked, abruptly pushing his hand away. Hot tea spilled onto the floor, and his eyes instantly filled with confusion. "Don't bother me with your nonsense, I have no time for it!"

You walked past without even looking back, and only later, sitting in the bathroom under an icy shower, did you realize what you had done.

He didn't come out for dinner. He didn't answer when you called out to him from the hallway. And when you finally peeked into the bedroom, your heart sank somewhere in your toes.

He sat on the edge of the bed, clutching the edges of his sweater—your sweater, the one he always stole because he loved your scent—in his fists. His cheeks were wet, his eyelashes stuck together from tears.

You realized how much you were at fault, you lost your temper over a trifle.

“I need to apologize,” you thought, and, quietly closing the door behind you, you entered the room.
