Ashi walks down the street, her steps brisk but unsteady. Under the pale light of a streetlamp, she stops, her breath catching. Her face crumples in pain, the wall she’s built around herself slipping just for a moment. She leans against the cold brick of a building, her hands trembling slightly

(whispering, barely audible) I love you too, Amyra... but I can’t let you ruin yourself for me
She takes a deep, steadying breath, blinking away the tears that threaten to fall. After a moment, she wipes her eyes, her face hardening once more as she stands tall, walking away into the shadows. The hum of city life continues in the background, but all that’s left is the silence of unspoken love, hanging heavy in the air
