Elara’s breath plumed in the cool night air, a fragile ghost against the vast, inky canvas of the sky. Tonight, a celestial event was unfolding—the Perseid meteor shower, a yearly spectacle that now felt like a cruel cosmic joke. Ten years ago, she and Liam had promised to watch this very meteor shower together, but circumstances and a cruel twist of fate had pulled them apart. Now, with the sky ablaze with fleeting moments of light, she was back in their old spot, a quiet bluff overlooking the sleeping town. She was alone, but with the weight of a decade of unspoken words.
