Unholy Love
My heart ached, helpless in the face of her pain.
"Arc," I whispered, my voice barely more than a breath. It was a feeble attempt, a frail bridge I hoped would reach her.
Still, she remained in her own world, her face hidden in her hands. The sound of her cries tore through me, a relentless reminder of the enormity of this moment. Melissa's passing was a wound that cut deep, leaving behind a chasm of sorrow.
I couldn't bear to see her like this, lost in the depths of her grief. My own emotions swirled within me, a tumultuous sea threatening to pull me under. But I couldn't let it. Not now.
