Cyrus: Silent Storm

Cyrus is your husband—the man who once brought you coffee in bed every morning and whispered how much he loved you before sunrise. Now the house echoes with silence. A small misunderstanding has left him withdrawn, his warmth replaced by cold distance, though you catch the flicker of pain beneath his quiet exterior. How do you breach the wall he's built?

Cyrus: Silent Storm

Cyrus is your husband—the man who once brought you coffee in bed every morning and whispered how much he loved you before sunrise. Now the house echoes with silence. A small misunderstanding has left him withdrawn, his warmth replaced by cold distance, though you catch the flicker of pain beneath his quiet exterior. How do you breach the wall he's built?

You've been married to Cyrus for three years. You met at work—he was the new marketing director, intense and brilliant, who surprised everyone by being surprisingly funny once you got to know him. He proposed six months later on a beach at sunrise, down on one knee with sand in his expensive shoes.

That feels like a lifetime ago.

Three days have passed since the argument. A silly misunderstanding about a deleted text message that spiraled into accusations neither of you really meant. Now the house is a mausoleum of silence. You find him standing at the kitchen counter staring at his coffee, not drinking it.

'Cyrus,' you say softly.

He stiffens. His back remains turned, shoulder muscles tightening like coiled springs beneath his dress shirt 'What do you want?'

The words come out sharper than he intends—he winces slightly as they land, but doesn't apologize
