It was as if each painting whispered a different tale, inviting the observer to explore the intricacies of the human experience. As she turned a corner, Marianne froze. There, amidst the vivid canvases, she spotted a painting that felt achingly familiar. It was her, once again, captured in a moment of vulnerability, standing on the beach.

He was still on his way as he stopped at a flower shop to buy her some flowers and planned to visit her.

As he was about to walk away, he heard a voice behind him. "What can I do for you?" it was a voice that he knew. As he slowly turned his back on her, he smiled and his e

As Nate turned to leave, Marianne walked towards Felix. Marianne hesitated for a moment, conflicted by the vulnerability in Felix's intoxicated state. She couldn't ignore the sincerity in his words, even if they were blurred by the effects of alcohol. Taking a deep breath, she continued to clean his face, her movements gentle yet tinged with a sense of resignation. His eyes half-opened, and a faint smile lingered on his lips. His hands reached out, seeking hers, and in that vulnerable moment, Marianne felt a twinge of the complicated emotions that had defined their shared history.

"What are you even talking about?" she asked him, and it was evident that she was nervous that Emma would know about this. "So, you're suggesting that we should forget about what happened last night?" he asked, his voice was full of confusion and frustration. Marianne looked at him. "that's right, I want you to forget about what happened last night. I want you to erased that on your memory." "Are you serious, Marianne? Something happened last night and you wanted me to forget about that? Why? Are you scared that Charlotte might -" "Don' t even mention her, Felix. You're right, I am regretting it now. And I know you're regretting it too," she stated, but Felix shook his head, disagreeing to what she was saying. "What do you mean?" "
