Summary
“And you used to be better at diversions. What was I saying?” His impatient question was nearly a demand in the stilled darkness, yet it still said nothing in return.
He could tell Minhkhoa wasn’t suddenly asleep but their shared silence suddenly felt different. It wasn’t merely a peaceful lack of noise, it was a deprivation of an entire sense—making the pulse in Bruce's ears faster and a feeling of unease settled into his bones as the seconds dragged themselves into unseen hours—which could very easily just be slow minutes instead. Even the city outside seemed to cease to exist as they were suspended in this perpetual, warped moment of time until, finally, Minhkhoa spoke again.
“Sorry.”
