The Weight of White
The first real snow of the year wasn't a gentle thing. It didn't drift. It fell. A thick, relentless pour that had started sometime after nine and hadn't let up. Sarah knew, because she’d been watching it, through the kitchen window, then the living room, now the bedroom. Mark wasn't home. Not yet. She’d given up on bed hours ago, too wound up to sleep anyway. The silence outside was the real shock, though. It ate sound. The usual hum of the city, the distant grind of a snowplow, the rustle of the old oak in the yard — all gone. Just a profound, soft hush.

Moon-Dusted Floors
The house was settling in for the night, groaning its old bones. Sarah stacked the last plate in the dishwasher, the machine’s hum a dull throb against the quiet. Mark was in the living room, a silhouette against the blue glow of the television, a sports game he wasn’t really watching. They’d barely spoken since dinner, not out of malice, just a tired sort of silence that had become another piece of the furniture, heavy and always there. She dried her hands on a dishtowel that had seen better days, smelling faintly of lemon cleaner and the chili they'd eaten.

The Glass Petals
Mary found herself staring at the crystal garden again, the one tucked into the sunroom's corner, under the dusty skylight. Thirty years. Thirty years since John had brought it home, a ridiculous, glittering monstrosity of spun glass and polished quartz, meant to capture light and refract it into a million promises. Now, it just sat there, a miniature cityscape of forgotten dreams, each delicate petal coated in a fine, grey film. A few of the slender stems had snapped, the tiny, polished facets dull where the light used to catch, make them burn. She reached out a hesitant finger, wiped a patch clean. It still had a shine, beneath all that grime, a faint, stubborn glow.

The Unspoken Glow
Leo shoved his hands deeper into his pockets, the cheap fabric of his jacket doing little against the damp chill creeping up his arms. The rain, a steady drizzle for an hour now, had turned the street into a dark, shimmering mirror. Headlights smeared into halos. Neon signs—the angry red of the bar down the block, the sickly green of the pharmacy, the stuttering blue of the laundromat across the street—bled into the puddles, distorting, elongating. Each reflection a broken promise, felt like. His breath plumed in front of him, thin and fleeting.

The Unwinding Hour
Sarah found the grandfather clock more of an obstacle than an antique, its dark, brooding presence a permanent fixture in their too-small living room. It was Mark’s inheritance, a hulking oak beast that had swallowed up half the light from the bay window for twenty years, chiming with an irritating, slightly off-key bong every quarter hour. Or, it used to. For the last five years, it had stood silent, a mausoleum for time, its hands frozen at a permanent 3:47. She’d stopped noticing it, really. It was just part of the furniture, like the stain on the rug under Mark’s favorite armchair, or the way he always left his coffee cup by the sink instead of in it.

The Distance Between Us. AI-Generated.
Arthur always thought the universe had a cruel sense of geometry. We sat across the same oak table in the university library, shared the same thin, metallic air of the metro car, and often stood under the same awning waiting for the same sudden storm to break. Yet, the distance between us—the emotional span between my heart and hers—was infinite, a gulf no measure of physical proximity could ever bridge.
