When Hearts Drifts

"Almost, But Not Quite"

Syaff and Syasya were everything to each other-best friends, soulmates in their own way, maybe even something more. They shared late-night calls, pet names, and an unspoken promise that they would always have each other. But then, things changed.

Syasya started pulling away. The replies became slower, the conversations shorter, and the once effortless connection between them felt strained. Syaff tried to hold on, convincing herself that she was okay, that she had accepted the growing distance. But deep down, she was drowning in the silence Syasya left behind.

And then came the breaking point. The realization that while Syaff was waiting, Syasya was spending her time with someone else. The calls that once belonged to them were now shared with Eqal. The attention that was once only Syaff's was now divided.

They fought, they cried, they tried to hold on. But how do you hold on to something when one person is already halfway out the door?

Now, they exist in a strange in-between. Not lovers, not quite best friends, and not yet strangers. Syasya doesn't want to let Syaff go, but she isn't fighting hard enough to make her stay either.

And Syaff? She just wants things to go back to how they were.

But maybe some things, once broken, can never be the same again.
