"Hey."

"Oh... hello."

"You can't sleep either, huh? Slide over, lemme sit...."

"No... I can't. Bed feels wrong with her gone."

"I know."

"I keep expecting to hear her come back. Like nothing happened, you know?"

"Yeah. Trying to carry all her grocery bags at the same time...."

"I kept telling her not to do that. I’d go help if she called. We both would."

"Do you think she’ll... ever come back?"

"I don’t know. She was so angry. If we hadn’t-"

"But we did. Maybe... we deserve this."

"But..."

"...turn the TV on. We shouldn't keep thinking about it.”

Aw, very well done! You do set up an intriguing little implied situation here.

Oh, ouch. I'm not sure what's happened but it sounds awful.
