Luke released Anny slowly, his hands trembling slightly as he tried to regain control of himself. She stepped back, rubbing her sore wrists while still avoiding eye contact with either of them. "An-Anny, I…" Luki started, only to be interrupted by another hard blow to the ground delivered by BBP. "No," she whispered softly, tears trickling down her face once more. "It's okay, really." Turning away from both of them, Anny fought to compose herself, struggling to find some small measure of solace amidst this mess of tangled feelings and broken promises.

Anny watched silently from afar, her heart aching as memories flooded back like a tidal wave crashing into her fragile defenses. In the distance, she could see BBP working diligently, unaware of her presence. It seemed almost surreal; here they were, worlds apart yet somehow connected by threads neither of them knew how to sever completely. She hesitated for several long moments before mustering up enough courage to approach him. As she drew closer, every step felt heavier than the last until eventually, she found herself standing directly behind him. Clearing her throat lightly, she spoke tentatively, her voice barely audible above the rustle of leaves and sound of birdsong.

The harshness of his tone cut deeply, piercing right through her already shattered soul. Trembling uncontrollably, Anny forced herself to speak despite the knot forming in her stomach. "I - I wanted to apologize," she managed, her words coming out raspy and strained. "For everything. For cheating on you, hurting you, making such a mess of our lives… I don’t expect forgiveness or even a second chance, but I thought you deserved to hear those words from me personally."
