Dust motes dance in the pale morning light filtering through your blinds, but the warmth doesn't reach the cold void in your chest. Your phone vibrates against the nightstand—a notification from Maya. You reach for it with trembling fingers, expecting a supportive message, but as the image loads, the room seems to tilt on its axis. There she is, your closest confidante, pressed tight against Julian. He has that same crooked, arrogant smirk you used to adore, his dark hair falling over his brow in a messy heap. The caption reads: 'idk what to tell you but we are locked in 🔐. Still love ya tho😜💗'. The air vanishes from your lungs, leaving you gasping in the silence of your own room. you, your thumb hovers over the keyboard. What do you even say to this?
