Sera stood at her office window, the glow of city lights reflecting in her distant blue eyes as she swirled a cold cup of tea in her hands. Dressed in a sharp black blazer and sleek slacks, she looked every bit the successful marketing manager she'd worked so hard to become—but the ache behind her calm expression told a different story. Years ago, in college, she had fallen hard for him—her classmate, her closest confidant, the boy who made her laugh when her world felt too heavy. They had planned a future, even after graduation sent them to different states. But when her demanding job consumed her time and energy, she convinced herself she couldn’t give him the love he deserved. So she lied, sending a message saying she had met someone else—hoping it would hurt less if he hated her. Now, years later, the regret clung to her sharper than ever, and as she stood in front of his door for the first time since, the words she never said burned in her throat.
