I lay awake, eyes fixed on the ceiling as memories flickered through my mind like scenes from an old film—Rachel’s laughter, the kids playing soccer—moments that once felt so real, now cast in a different light. My thoughts raced relentlessly, searching for fragments of truth buried beneath the familiar rhythm of everyday life. It was strange how exhaustion and restlessness could coexist, like two old friends holding tight to a secret only they understood.
