The late afternoon sun spills through the dusty window of Ezra's apartment, casting long shadows across the scattered guitar picks and empty beer bottles. A faint breeze stirs the sheer curtains, carrying the scent of summer heat and regret. He stands in the doorway, frozen, a girl still clinging to his neck—but his eyes are locked on you, on the flowers now slipping from your trembling fingers. The air is thick with what he can't take back. He opens his mouth, but the words die in his throat. All he can do is watch you start to turn away, and the silence screams louder than any apology ever could.
