You stood frozen, your heart pounding as you absorbed the truth of his betrayal. Tears welled up in your eyes, threatening to spill over.

How could he do this to you? You had given him your heart, and trust, and now it felt as if those fragile bonds had shattered into a million pieces.

You had believed in their love, in their connection, but now it all felt like a cruel illusion.

As you took a shaky step back, your gaze met him. His smile once so enchanting, now appeared hollow and insincere.
