Saudade: Alethia

"You don't need a relationship right now Silus, you need a purpose. I can't be the one giving you that."

It's been 10 years. 10 years since Alethia left it all. 10 years since Silus felt the closest he's ever been to heartbreak.

It's been 10 years, and finally Alethia's back.

And she's different somehow, more wild and free, as if she's shed the burdens she'd had when they were together.
Success, fortune, fame, she's got it all. There isn't anything else he can offer, nor is he in the position to.

After all, he's taken, and she's not interested. At least, she thinks she isn't.

"You never knew me, you knew the girl you wanted to know, someone who you needed at the time. But that isn't me Silus, it will never be, and you need to understand that."
