19 Chapter 17: Shattered Trust

Aayat's gaze rested on her diary, its pages adorned with quotes that encapsulated her feelings for Abyad.

My tears are now my constant companion, As I lay with my wet pillow every night, My feelings numbed, my heart shattered, The mere mention of you, a painful sight. Scars run deep within my soul, Wounds inflicted by your treacherous ways, Betrayal etched forever in my memories, Leaving me alone in this endless maze. You are the epitome of my misery, Yet, I cannot bring myself to hate you, For love once bloomed in my heart, Now, withered away like morning dew. I dread the day we meet again, For I fear I'll crumble at your feet, The walls I built, so hard to mend, Will fall with a single glance of deceit. You always knew me without a word, Sensed my pain, my love, my hate, And now, in my loneliness, I wish, That you were here, to save me from this fate.
