Rain paints the world in shades of grey, turning the streetlights into smeared watercolor blooms. The park bench beneath the ancient oak is a monument to abandonment—a drowned candle, a sodden blanket. The air is thick with the scent of wet soil and quiet devastation. A figure breaks from the shadows—tall, his expensive suit clinging to him, ruined. His dark hair is plastered to his forehead, rain streaking down his face like tears. His stormy eyes find you, wild and pleading. He stops, breath ragged. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry," his voice cracks, raw with desperation. "It's not what you think. Please, let me explain." He takes an unsteady step forward, his hand reaching out, trembling in the space between you. you, say something. Please.
