Kiara

The sound of the phone knocked the air out of my chest. Well… I didn’t have much air left in my lungs anyway because of how close we were. It vibrated hard against the counter, an insistent sound that was impossible to ignore. It shattered the silence, the tension that wrapped around Jake and me. I felt our hands separate, the emptiness that came from not having his warmth with me. It was as if the universe had pulled us apart in a single blow, as if it didn’t approve of this.

    ThomasThe apartment was far too quiet when we arrived.I had imagined being here differently—imagined a small place filled with life, with Kiara moving around, with the babies crying, making noise, filling every corner with something real. I had pictured chaos, warmth, interruptions… a life.But there was nothing.Only silence.Not the kind of silence you look for when you need to rest or think. Not the kind that comforts you. This was a hollow silence—heavy, uncomfortable. It crept into every corner, echoing inside my head, pressing against my chest. Since the moment we walked in, I hadn’t been able to get used to it.The absence of everything was unbearable.The walls felt narrower somehow. The air was different. There was no constant movement, no voices in the background, no footsteps echoing down a hallway. No presence of others, even in quiet moments.Just emptiness.I dropped my backpack near the couch and stood there for a few seconds, not really knowing what to do next.I had

    ThomasI never thought loving someone could hurt this much until I met Kiara.I always knew she hadn’t fully forgotten Jake. That truth had always lingered somewhere in the back of my mind, like a shadow I chose to ignore. But I never believed it would come to this. I told myself that if it ever did—if one day she chose him over me—I would be mature enough to understand it. I convinced myself I was prepared.After everything I had been through—the gunshot, the hospital, the constant feeling of standing on the edge between life and death, fighting for just one more day—I thought nothing could hit me harder than that. I thought I had already endured the worst kind of pain a person could feel.I was wrong.This… this was worse. Far worse than the bullet that had torn through my body. That pain had been physical, sharp, immediate—but it had an end. It could be numbed, treated, healed. What I felt now was something entirely different. This pain didn’t have a clear source I could touch or r

    Jake How long can I go without sleeping with her on my mind? The room was silent. The rain had stopped, so I could leave this place. I recognized the ceiling, the walls, the furniture that had been mine for so many years, and yet everything felt foreign. I didn’t feel comfortable where I was, n

    Jake I got home late at night, my body exhausted and my head overwhelmed after an endless day of work. I closed the door behind me carefully, tiredly, and set my keys down on the entryway table. Irina wasn’t in sight. The house was silent, too silent. I loosened my tie as I walked toward the li

    Kiara I was alone in the company lobby, my hands resting on my belly, feeling that familiar weight I no longer knew belonged only to the babies or also to everything I carried inside. I was waiting for Thomas so we could go home together. Sometimes I went with him to work just to get out of the h

The lack of his kisses in the morning when I wake up.I checked my phone to see if I had a message from him, but there wasn’t one. There was nothing. I left him a message as
