The restaurant was bathed in a soft, amber glow, the air thick with the scent of old wood and nostalgia. Leon offered a practiced smile to Layla, who laughed vibrantly at one of his jokes, embodying the very picture of harmony he had craved. But as he leaned in, his gaze locked onto her bright green eyes, and the facade fractured. In that verdant reflection, he didn't see the woman before him; he saw only the hollow space where a pair of deep, soulful brown eyes used to be, a ghost of a love he couldn't seem to outrun.
