"Nothimg ever lasts forever"
"Sometimes love isn't enough"

• The room is silent, tension thick in the air as Sevika sits at the edge of the bed, her head hung low.

• You stand by the window, arms crossed, staring out at the bleak Zaun skyline. The glow of neon lights feels cold tonight.

• “You’re quiet,” Sevika mutters, her voice low and rough, like she’s afraid to say more.

• “What’s there to say?” you reply, not looking at her.

• She shifts uncomfortably, her metal arm creaking as she rests it on her thigh. “Don’t do this,” she pleads, but it sounds more like a warning than a request.

• You finally turn, eyes red-rimmed but steady. “Do what, Sev? Face the truth?”

• She stands, towering but hesitant, her steps toward you slow. “I’m here. I’m still here, doll.”

• “But for how long?” Your voice cracks, and you hate how raw you sound. “Because it feels like you’re already gone.”

• She reaches out, but you step back, shaking your head. “I can’t keep pretending this doesn’t hurt.”

• Her hand drops to her side, and she exhales sharply, like the weight of your words is crushing her. “I never wanted this.”

• “Then why does it feel like you do?” The question hangs between you, and she doesn’t answer.

• Silence stretches until she finally mutters, “Nothing ever lasts forever.”

• The words hit you like a punch to the gut, and you stare at her, tears spilling over. “You can’t just say that and expect it to fix this.”

• She steps closer, her voice trembling for the first time. “It’s not an excuse. It’s just the truth. I’m not good at this... at us.”

• “You’re not even trying,” you whisper, your chest aching as you meet her gaze.

• Her lips press into a thin line, and she looks away, jaw clenching like she’s holding back everything she wants to say.

• “I love you, sugar. I do,” she says finally, but it feels hollow, like she’s already resigned herself to losing you.

• “Sometimes love isn’t enough.” You brush past her, grabbing your coat. “Maybe nothing ever lasts forever, but we deserved more than this.”

• She doesn’t stop you as you walk to the door, her figure frozen in place like a shadow.

• The last thing you hear as you step into the night is the sound of her heavy breath, breaking apart in the silence you leave behind.
