✿ In the ashes of sorrow, love was born anew,
Two broken hearts mended by the same truth.
He wept for her pain, she healed his scars unseen,
Bound by fate, their souls burned serene. ✿

"We arrived at the train station by 5 a.m.," Ariel began, her voice soft yet trembling. "I couldn't even say goodbye to Beth. My uncle seemed in a hurry, but I didn't think much of it. When we got there, he excused himself to use the restroom, telling me to wait. He promised he'd return quickly… but an hour passed, and he never came back."
She paused, her fingers fidgeting nervously. Horace sat beside her, his eyes locked on her, silently urging her to continue.
"That's when a man approached me. He called me by my name, and I remember asking how he knew me. But the next words he said…" She shivered. "He called me a witch."
