Chapitre 51: Communication

Ethan and Sasha walked through the park which was quiet and peaceful, illuminated by the soft glow of the moon and the flickering of distant streetlights. The rustling of leaves in the cool breeze added to the serene atmosphere, creating a sense of calm that enveloped them both.

Ethan started, "I am sorry."

"Didn't you already say that?" she asked, her fingers intertwining with his.

But Simon had seen right through him and had decided to confront him.

"Come on, man, why do you have to do this to yourself?" Simon had asked, with a hint of disappointment in his voice.

"What do you mean?" Ethan said, his words slurring together.
