Silent screams wake him up during the night: his own. He rolls over to watch the other man’s chest heave in steady rhythm. He needs to be close, to be able to touch.

“Never again,” he thinks. “Never again shall I look at you from a distance, powerless, unable to help or calm you down. Never again shall I stand watching, incapable of reaching you and whisper in your ear that you are the love of my life, my reason to live.”

Alone he had stood amongst his colleagues and friends. Alone in a cruel reality, watching from outside the box.
