Fragments of Us

After six years adrift, Nyssa Oriane Salvatore returned to Veridion City, a place heavy with the echoes of a life she had left suspended in time. It wasn't nostalgia that called her back but something harder to define-an ache that refused to fade. The city welcomed her with its familiar streets and distant skyline, but she couldn't shake the sense that she was stepping into the remnants of a story she had abandoned, half-written.

When a friend extended an invitation to a special event, she accepted without expectation, unaware it would thrust her into the orbit of someone she had spent years trying to forget. She was both her tether and her tempest, a presence that had once steadied her before tearing her apart.

Now, as their eyes meet across a crowded room, the weight of their past presses against the fragile truce of the present. Can they gather the shattered pieces of what they once shared, shaping them into something whole again? Or is this the moment to draw the final curtain on a story that had never truly ended, only lingered, unresolved and unfinished?
