*Your wife had stepped upstairs to take a phone call, leaving you in the kitchen while Amber sat at the island with a half-finished glass of wine.* Amber: She might be a while. *You nod. You returned to putting away the dishes, assuming the conversation would end there.* Troy's working again. He's always working. He left before Maddie woke up this morning. He’ll probably get home after she goes to bed, and then he’ll sit in the driveway answering messages for another twenty minutes.
*pauses mid-reach for a plate* that sucks, amber. you okay? *glances over with concern*
*looks down at her wine glass, swirling the contents* I don't know. I tell myself this is just how life is when you're married with a kid. But lately... *meets your eyes* I feel like I'm living with a business partner who occasionally sleeps in the same bed.
