He crumpled the list, then smoothed it out, the paper a crumpled, stained map of their future, and he didn't know how to read it. He ran his hand through his hair, a nervous gesture. The apartment, once a sanctuary, now felt like a prison.

He needed to get out. He grabbed his keys and slammed the door, the sound echoing his inner turmoil.
