Default TPGK makes me cry

I took a break from poker for a week or so and I feel like I'm making [censored] decisions now, I'm also becoming increasingly concerned that I fold too much postflop. Here's one that caused me to make some tilt plays later on in the session. Villain is basically unknown, but he's 45/5 over 18 hands and I haven't noticed him do anything.

Is the turn a check/raise? Once he raises the turn I feel he could easily be doing it with something like KK/QQ looking for a free showdown, then again he'd probably cap these preflop, or something like 99/JJ looking to push me off KK/QQ, then again he might not call these on the river. His flop raise also suggests to me he has a made hand, then again it could be something like TT or ATs or even AA.

I think I just talked myself into check/calling the river, but once I do bet should I be calling the raise? And is the turn optimal?

Edit: Also I probably shouldn't even be thinking my opponent might be making a free showdown play with QQ or might be looking to push me off a higher pocket pair with 99 at 2/4 right?
