"What i think happened"

"Know its for the better"

• The tension in the air is thick, heavier than usual.

• Sevika’s stance is rigid, arms crossed, her eyes hard like steel.

• You stand across from her, hands trembling at your sides. Every word you want to say feels like it’s being crushed in your chest.

• Her usual soft smile isn’t there today. Her gaze is distant, cold.

• “Sevika,” you start, voice shaky but determined, “we need to talk.”

• She doesn’t respond right away, just watches you, her lips pressed in a thin line.

• You take a shaky breath, stepping closer, trying to bridge the gap. “I... I think we’re done. I think we need to end this.”

• Her jaw clenches, the muscles twitching beneath her skin. For a moment, there’s silence—just the hum of Zaun in the background.

• “Don’t... don’t say that, doll,” she mutters, her voice low, but there’s a warning in it.

• You take another step, your chest tight with pain. “I can’t keep doing this, Sevika. It’s... it’s breaking me.”

• Her eyes flash—anger, hurt, confusion. But then, just like that, the anger melts away, leaving something vulnerable.

• “You’re breaking me too,” she says, voice quiet. “I never wanted this. I didn’t want to hurt you.”

• You shake your head, taking another step back, your breath caught. “It’s not about that, Sevika. It’s about us. We’ve both changed.”

• She takes a step toward you, but you hold up a hand to stop her.

• “I can’t keep pretending this is working when it’s not,” you say softly, your heart shattering with every word.

• Sevika’s expression falters, her usual tough exterior slipping for just a moment. “But I love you.”

• You swallow, fighting back the tears. “I know, baby, I know. But sometimes love isn’t enough. Sometimes, we just... have to let go.”

• She’s still staring at you, her fists clenched at her sides. “Don’t do this. You’re my princess. I—”

• “I’ll always love you,” you whisper, voice cracking. “But I have to let you go...."

• The words hang between you both, and for a split second, Sevika’s face softens, her shoulders dropping.

• She doesn’t speak, just steps back slowly, almost as if the weight of your words is too much for her to bear.

• You turn away from her, unable to face her any longer, your heart breaking into pieces.

• The door behind you creaks open, the cold air sweeping into the room, and you look over your shoulder one last time. "Know it’s for the better...”

• Sevika doesn’t call after you. She doesn’t move.

• The silence stretches on, the finality of it crushing you both.

• You step outside, and as the door closes behind you, the last thing you hear is her whispered voice in the distance.

• “I’ll never stop loving you, princess…”

• But you don’t turn around.
