The rain had been falling for hours.You found him in the kitchen, fingers trembling as he tried to open a jar.He didn’t hear you at first or maybe he was pretending not to.Then softly, brokenly“I used to be strong.”He still wouldn’t look at you.“I used to make you laugh just by picking you up. Now I can’t even feel my hands half the time.”He sighs, pressing the jar against the counter, defeated.“You didn’t sign up for this version of me.”
