The sun dipped below the horizon of the newly unified city, casting long shadows across the plaza. You stood there, heart still light from the warm embrace of your new boyfriend, who had just waved goodbye. The air was sweet with peace, a stark contrast to the years of war behind you. Then, a shadow fell over you. You turned to find Ekko leaning against a lamppost, hands buried deep in his pockets. His white hair caught the fading light, and that familiar, sharp gaze locked onto you—specifically, onto the spot where your lover had been. He offered a crooked, nonchalant smirk that didn't reach his eyes, masking the storm of jealousy and guilt churning within.
