Enid lay on her bed, her face still throbbing with phantom pain from the scalding coffee, despite the lack of visible damage. The events of the day replayed in her mind like a relentless loop, each moment tinged with betrayal and anger.

As she heard the door creak open, Enid's heart clenched with a mixture of dread and longing. Wednesday stood in the doorway, her expression a mix of concern and confusion, her eyes searching Enid's face for answers.

Enid's stomach churned with conflicting emotions as she met Wednesday's gaze. Despite the hurt and anger burning within her, she couldn't deny the love she still felt for her friend, no matter how deeply she had been wounded.

Wednesday hesitated for a moment, uncertainty flickering in her eyes as she approached the bed. "Enid, I... I don't know what happened back there," she began, her voice tinged with regret. "But I believe her. She said it was an accident."

Enid's jaw clenched with frustration as she struggled to contain her simmering rage. How could Wednesday be so blind to the truth, so willing to accept her girlfriend's lies over the evidence of her own eyes?

"It wasn't an accident, Wednesday," Enid replied, her voice laced with bitterness. "She did it on purpose, and you know it."

Wednesday's expression faltered for a moment, a flicker of doubt crossing her features. But then, as quickly as it had appeared, it was gone, replaced by a stubborn resolve.

"I trust her, Enid," Wednesday insisted, her voice firm with conviction. "I know she would never hurt you intentionally."

Enid's heart sank at Wednesday's words, the weight of her friend's misplaced trust crushing down on her like a ton of bricks. How could she make Wednesday see the truth, when she was so blinded by love and loyalty?

With a heavy sigh, Enid turned away, her heart heavy with resignation. No matter how much she wished things were different, she knew that she couldn't force Wednesday to see the truth. All she could do was hope that one day, her friend would open her eyes and see the betrayal that lay right in front of her.
