Sienna's POV

I shook my head slowly. “I loved you, Liam. I did. But I’m just too tired now. My love for you has long burned out. I can’t go back to a place that broke me—slowly, every single day. I have to choose to love myself this time.”

He looked at me like he wanted to beg. But no words came out.

“Don’t ask me to come back just because you feel empty. I know what it’s like to live with someone who doesn’t love me the way I loved them. I don’t want Noah to see that and think that’s what love looks like.”

I picked up my small bag and stood. “Thank you for being honest, Liam. But this… it’s too late.”

Before I turned away, I caught a glimpse of the broken expression on his face. But I knew—if I stayed there any longer, I would fall into the same wound again.

I wouldn’t let that happen again.

I walked out of the café with quick steps, as if the glass walls would collapse behind me if I delayed even for a second. The soft sound of the door closing be

    Sienna's POV I experienced a gentle stroll that afternoon. The sun had begun to move towards the west, and its golden rays were spreading across the pavement. As the breeze gently blew into my hair, I could smell coffee and toast from the rows of cafés in this street. Walking slowly, I embraced my small bag and let the thought slip away in an unfocused manner. I couldn't shake off the words from Livia:Your words suggest that you have found peace with yourself.Maybe she was right, I thought. At one point, my movements were so rapid, I felt like I was walking in an endless loop.It's possible that it was my initial encounter with someone I had not seen in a long time.The colors of the sky were softly changing, the shadows of trees gliding across the pavement, and strangers' laughter provided comfort. It was not just a matter of observation.A small bookstore situated at the corner of the street was where I stood. Several new novels were showcased in the win

    Sienna's POV My lips softened as I giggled. "I might take a break." My work desk at home has remained untidened as of now.She playfully told her that they should all be quiet, but her tone was clear. “You merit it." We both smiled. We maintained a comfortable silence as we didn't need to end the conversation, but because we both knew it was not time for grand conclusions. At times, it's just a relief that we've made it to this point.Closing my eyes for a second, I thought about what the cafe was doing and its. My first experience wasn't involving any evidence. I just wanted to enjoy this small talk, a cup of coffee, a friendly chat and the peace I’d not felt for months.With a soft voice, Livia glanced at me once more. "You're doing great, Sienna," she said softly. “You not only found yourself through that story but also your work as well." Despite the sudden surge of emotions, I swallowed deeply to keep my composure. "I'm proud of where I came from

    Sienna's POV The room became quieter when I glanced at her. The outside noise echoed with only the faint sound of traffic, while inside they were simply talking to two friends who had been through a lot.It dawned on me that Livia was more than just an editor or a writer.She witnessed all aspects of my life, from the time I wrote out of frustration to the moment I dared to write truthfully.After hearing her words, I retreated to my chair. My writing always made me cry, not because of sadness but because I felt someone understood my words. The pain, loss, and hope that I had concealed between the lines had somehow reached out to another person. How fortunate! It was magical.I breathed deeply, examining my fingers as they stretched. Memories of prolonged writing nights, such as dim desk lighting, typing in silence, and iced coffee always seem to fade away before I could finish. It was as though each moment had been part of a long journey and now it feels all t

    Sienna's POV Within a few minutes of Liam's departure, I was still in my seat, ogling the remains from inside me. As the café became more bustling, glasses clinked, laughter broke out, and an espresso machine hummed up. My thoughts persisted at the table, lingering on despite the gentle conversations and unsettling looks. The silence was too much to articulate.My mind took a deep breath, trying to keep my focus level. I should have felt relieved. At last, there was no longer any sense of anger or regret. Still though, I felt the feeling. It's possible that I wasn't entirely sure about our relationship after this. Possibly due to my persistent hesitation to trust once more, I had lost all faith.I reflected on the cup in front of me, reflecting on an earlier moment. The softness of Liam's eyes, his silent expression, as if he recognized my lack of readiness. That should have been enough. It was clear to me that a relationship like ours, which had been broken and now b

    Sienna's POV The words stuck with me, but I didn't know why. His tone was one of acceptance rather than sadness or regret. This morning, maybe it was that. Why is that? Both of us had stopped running and were gradually relearning to walk together.The door was half open, and I could smell the faint espresso odor.Liam stared at me briefly before dismounting his seatbelt. “Come on." After that, I nodded and opened the door and walked out.We reached a tiny coffee shop situated close to Noah's school. The place was not busy earlier, only a handful of customers perusing laptops or newspapers.A friendly smile was seen on the barista as she asked what they wanted to order.With a smile on his face, Liam nodded and asked if he wanted 'two cappuccinos and chocolate croissants'.I chuckled. "I'm really into chocolate croissants. What could it be?”"I'm surprised to hear that you had a liking for those," he said.“You’re welcome to see all of
