It’s really over. I mean, it had never truly begun… we always knew this wasn’t allowed, that it wouldn’t work, but we gave into our whims and desires. She is an obsession. A fixation. I should be able to move on soon, I just need a little time.

It’s been a week since I’ve seen Vega. An entire week without her sultry smile, a week without the deep notes in her voice. Without work to distract me, I’ve been an anxious mess. I decide to text the Unholy Trilogy.
Indigo
I am fucking sad, friends.

Alitha
We know.
Dahlia

“Not the best idea. That’s where they met. Why don’t we go to dinner; how’s Italian food sound?”
“Perfect,” I reply. Besides grocery shopping and long walks with Momiji, I’ve barely left the house. “Tomorrow at six?”
