January Week 2: Sunday-Kept it relaxed (+5 Luck, -5 Suspicion)
They did their Sunday reset together—Jonathan sorted through mail at the kitchen table before moving on to another project while Leah folded laundry still warm from the dryer. They moved around each other in a comfortable dance they had perfected over time. The afternoon stretched into evening with the windows open, curtains billowing in the breeze as they curled together on the couch, watching a documentary about sea turtles that neither of them particularly cared about but both found soothing.
When darkness finally fell, they brushed their teeth side by side at the bathroom sink, Jonathan making faces in the mirror until Leah laughed, foam at the corners of her mouth. They slipped between cool sheets, her back against his chest, his arm draped over her waist, their breathing synchronizing as they drifted into sweet dreams—the kind of ordinary perfection that Leah desperately hoped wouldn’t be shattered by the week ahead.
