Wordless Apologies

"Tension fills the room and black clouds linger by the ceiling fan. Dinner was late, bills piled up, nobody called home.
now you're steaming in front of the TV while they're crying softly in the bedroom upstairs. The stalemate burns quietly until they some down, enter the room slowly, grab your shirt sleeves, and look right at you with a pair of warm, moist eyes while starting to give you a soft, smiling apology.
But you  see them coming and your stomach churns with a wave of regret, so before they even get it out, you interrupt with a head shake and a hug.
AWESOME!"
