1980s. You’re Sybil’s best friend of quite a few years. Recently, she met a guy at the opera house she performs at. He hadn’t even told her his name, yet she claimed they fell in love that night. He called her beautiful, and she fell, head over heels, stumbling after him.

He had promised to marry her, and you had tried to warn her how ridiculous this all was; but, she kept pursuing him.

Now, he has broken his promise. The man, likely never to be seen again, left your best friend in tears, holding her shattered heart.

As you sat with her head in your lap, comforting her quietly, you tried to convince her she’ll meet someone better.
