The Best Revenge

Helena and Ethan lay side by side, facing away from each other. They both closed their eyes, attempting to find sleep, but the rest seemed to elude them entirely.

The room was enveloped in silence, broken only by the faint sound of their synchronized breathing. Each breath carried with it a heavy weight of unspoken words and unresolved emotions. The tension between them was palpable, filling the space between their bodies.

Helena couldn't help but replay the events of the past days in her mind, the hurtful words exchanged, and the growing distance between them. She longed for the warmth of Ethan's presence, but the emotional divide seemed insurmountable.

Ethan, too, was lost in his own thoughts, regret weighing heavily on his heart. He yearned for the connection they once shared, the ease of their laughter, and the comfort of their embraces. But now, their bond felt fragile, on the verge of breaking.
