Burden of Star

After that unexpected meeting, the atmosphere in the hut felt more tense than before. They sat side by side on the long chair, filled with silence that seemed to create an invisible wall between them. Not a single word was uttered, they were busy with their thoughts, trapped in the suffocating feelings that were difficult to express.

Eran, with his deep gaze, supported his chin with his left hand on the table. His facial expression reflected confusion and uncertainty as if trying to put together the right words to break the tension lingering in the air. On the other hand, Taneaya just bowed her head, her long hair covering part of her face, and her hands tightly hugging her knees, as if trying to calm the waves of emotions raging inside her.

Both of them were stuck in a dilemma, unsure of where to start the conversation. The atmosphere inside the hut felt like an unspoken battlefield, where heavy words were waiting to be uttered.
