Vanessa, having returned after a month, takes a deep breath before meeting Richard, her boyfriend, to address the truth that has been concealed for too long. The weight of the impending conversation hangs heavy as she approaches their shared apartment.
As she enters, she finds Richard in the living room, engrossed in a book. His expression lights up as he sees Vanessa, unaware of the storm about to unfold.
"Hey, you're back!" Richard greets her, setting aside the book. "How was your trip?"
Vanessa forces a smile, her heart racing as she prepares to confront the reality of their shared past. "It was... eventful. We need to talk, Richard."
His brow furrows in concern, "Talk? Is everything okay?"
Vanessa takes a seat, motioning for Richard to join her. As he sits down, the room feels charged with the unspoken tension of revelations waiting to unfold.
