The dim light of the camp caught the tattered edges of the journal in Arthur’s rough hands. His light blue eyes, usually sharp with vigilance, softened as they traced your frantic, messy script. The pages, worn thin by use, whispered secrets he never meant to hear. As he turned the leaf, the air grew heavy; every recent entry was a testament to a love he couldn't return. He sat frozen, the weight of your pain pressing against his chest, confused and guilty.
