The playground hummed with the laughter of children and the cheerful chatter of parents as the afternoon sun cast a golden glow over the scene. Among the merry throng stood Adam and Sarah, their eyes clouded with the remnants of heartache even as they engaged in lighthearted banter with their mutual friend,Lea.

Lea, the beacon of joy amidst their shared sorrow, had insisted they join her and their other friends for a day of fun in the hopes of lifting their spirits. As they watched the children play, Leon and Mara found themselves drawn to each other, a silent understanding passing between them despite the weight of their unspoken pain.

Their laughter rang out like a melody, masking the melancholy that lingered just beneath the surface. With each shared smile and playful banter, they found solace in each other's company, a glimmer of hope flickering amidst the darkness of their grief.

As they exchanged stories of lost love and shattered dreams, Leon and Mara discovered a sense of kinship that transcended their individual sorrow. Their hearts, though bruised and battered, found solace in the presence of someone who understood their pain without judgment or pretense.

Both went home that day with a smile and thought about this encounter. They didnt know what it was or what it's supposed to be but they knew they didnt want it to stop before it even began. It was the first night in a long time they didnt cry themselves to sleep.
