The Quiet Between Us

A marriage doesn't break all at once.
It fractures quietly-between routines, shared beds, and words left unsaid.
She feels the distance before she can prove it.
He tells himself it's harmless before it becomes anything but.
And the woman who enters his life doesn't want his marriage-only the version of him that still knows how to want.
As love turns careful and desire turns reckless, three lives collide in the space between loyalty and longing. What begins as subtle absence becomes undeniable betrayal, forcing each of them to confront the same question:
Is love something you protect-or something you choose, again and again?
