You used to finish each other's sentences. Now you finish dinner in silence. Something shifted — not dramatically, not with a fight — just slowly enough that you almost didn't notice.
You both still care. That's not the question. The question is whether you can find the thread that connects who you were to who you've become — before the distance becomes permanent.
