…He looks at me for a long moment. Then he closes the door. I am alone again. The silence is different now. It’s not hollow anymore. It’s heavy. Dense. Full of everything we’ve done and everything we’ve lost. I think of my mother. I hope she is okay. I hope she knows I love her. I hope she knows I would have done anything for her. But she already knows. She did the same for me. The weight of her sacrifice settles on my chest. It’s not a burden anymore. It’s a testament. A proof of love. I carry it with me as I sit in the gray cell, the cuffs still cold, the truth still raw. The door stays closed. The silence stays heavy. And I stay here, waiting for what comes next.
