From her bedroom window, Elena could see how the sun above the sky let her light shine brightly.
The sunny weather was clearly inversely proportional to her mood which felt like she was being hit by a storm. In fact, one day wasn't enough to make Elena shake off all her sadness.
The sadness stayed and wouldn't go away no matter how hard she wanted it to subside. She didn't want to be stuck in a situation like this. She wanted to be a strong woman but why was she so sad? She felt heartbroken.
This wasn't just because she and Elleard couldn't proceed with the penetration that would have solved their intimacy problem, but also because she felt like hitting a dead-end with this relationship. There were only two choices they could make and both were equally difficult and depressing.
