I agree, feeling the exhaustion of emotion and conversation.
We sit in silence, the tension eased, replaced by a tentative peace.
The papers are still there, but their presence is less threatening.
The future is uncertain, but the path forward feels clearer.
We stand, a silent agreement to continue this discussion another time.
As she leaves, I feel a mix of relief and anticipation.
There’s still much to resolve, but for the first time, it feels possible.
