The night had fallen heavy over the house, wrapping everything in an uneasy silence. The only sound came from the ticking wall clock and the distant hum of Brooke’s bedtime cartoon upstairs.

Lurry sat on the couch, staring blankly at the photo frame in his hands — one from years ago, when Bethany used to smile without pretending.

He muttered softly, “We used to be so full of life… what happened to us?”

Bethany walked in, still holding her phone, barely looking up. “What are you mumbling about now, Lurry?”

He raised his eyes to her, tired but calm. “I’m talking about us. About how we turned into strangers living under one roof.”

Bethany frowned. “Lurry, not tonight, please. I’ve had enough drama at work. Can we just not do this?”

He sighed deeply. “You’ve been saying that for years. You never have time — not for me, not for Brooke, not for anything that matters.”

She dropped her phone on the table, her tone defensive. “Don’t start blaming me again. You think I enjoy living like this? You think I don’t feel the distance?”

He stood up slowly, walking toward her. “If you feel it, then why don’t you ever try to fix it? When was the last time you looked at me with love? Or told Brooke you’re proud of her? You treat us like chores.”

Bethany’s voice trembled. “Maybe I’m just tired of pretending. Maybe I’m done trying to fix something that’s already broken.”

Lurry looked down, pain flashing in his eyes. “So that’s it? After all these years, that’s all you have to say?”

She crossed her arms. “I can’t keep faking happiness, Lurry. Not for you. Not for her.”

He gave a bitter chuckle. “Funny thing is… I never wanted fake happiness. I just wanted effort. But you stopped giving that too.”

For a long moment, neither spoke. The air between them felt cold, sharp. Brooke’s laughter from upstairs faded as she turned off the TV.

Lurry whispered, “I watched you drift away, Bethany. Every day. You never smiled at me, never held my hand, never even asked if I was okay. I stayed, hoping you’d come back. But you didn’t.”

Bethany looked away. For the first time, her eyes softened, but she couldn’t find the words.

Lurry stood up. “I’ve tried, Bethany. I’ve begged for peace. I’ve begged for affection. But I can’t beg for love that doesn’t live here anymore.”

Bethany finally whispered, “You make it sound so easy.”

He turned toward her. “No, it’s not easy. It’s painful. Because I never wanted to give up. I wanted to save this. I wanted to believe you’d come back to me—to us. But now, every time I look at you, I just feel empty.”

Tears filled her eyes, but her pride wouldn’t let them fall. “Maybe I just don’t know how to love like you do, Lurry.”

He nodded softly. “Maybe that’s the truth I needed to hear.”

There was silence again. Only the faint hum of the refrigerator filled the space between them.

Bethany finally asked, “What about Brooke?”

His voice trembled slightly. “She deserves to see what love looks like. Not this quiet war we keep living in. I’ll never take her away from you. But I can’t keep showing her that sadness is normal.”

Bethany wiped her eyes quickly. “So that’s it? You’re done?”

Lurry looked at her one last time. “No, Bethany. You were done long before I was. I’m just finally admitting it.”

He walked toward the door, picked up his coat, and paused. “I wish you’d tried. That’s all.”

Bethany stood frozen, tears now streaming down her face. As the door closed behind him, the silence felt heavier than ever before.

Brooke walked out slowly, holding her drawing—a picture of her family smiling together.

“Mommy… is Daddy mad?”

Bethany knelt down, forcing a weak smile. “No, sweetheart. Daddy’s just… tired.”

Brooke hugged her tightly, whispering, “You can say sorry. He always forgives.”

Bethany’s tears fell onto her daughter’s hair. For the first time in years, her heart ached not from anger, but regret.

Outside, Lurry sat in his car, staring at the house through the windshield. He wanted to believe things could change. But deep down, he knew—

sometimes love doesn’t die all at once.

It fades quietly… until there’s nothing left but silence
