Break-up.
Luna's POV
I stood up and looked away. I really didn't know how to react to Alen's apology. How do I tell him I wanted to break up with him?
"Luna," he called, "what's the matter?"
I took a deep breath, trying to find the right words. "Alen, I appreciate your apology, but... I think we need to talk."
His expression changed, a mix of confusion and concern. "Talk about what?"
I turned to face him, trying to muster up the courage. "I... I think we should break up."
His eyes widened, clearly taken aback. "What? Why?"
"It's not about you," I hurried to explain. "It's about me. I... I need some time to figure things out, to figure out what I really want."
He looked down, processing my words. "Is there someone else?"
I hesitated, knowing that mentioning Dominick would only complicate things further. "No, it's not about someone else. It's just... I need some space."
"Is this about Dominick?"
