"Don't you think you should respond?" his wife asked, glancing over his shoulder as he sat in the armchair, the invitation resting on his lap. He could feel her gaze on him, a gentle pressure that he found… irritating.

He shifted in his seat, his gaze drifting towards the window. Outside, the leaves were beginning to turn, the vibrant colors a stark contrast to the muted tones of his living room. He remained silent.

"It's just one night," she continued, her voice soft. He knew she meant well. He knew he should.

He slowly, deliberately, folded the invitation in half.
