Chapter 14 - The Space Between

The days turned into weeks, and the weeks turned into months. Emily and Jack's break from each other felt like an eternity. They had agreed to give each other space, to figure out what they truly wanted from their relationship.

Emily threw herself into her work, trying to distract herself from the emptiness she felt without Jack. She spent long hours at the office, pouring over projects and deadlines. But no matter how busy she was, she couldn't shake off the feeling of loneliness.

She missed Jack's smile, his laughter, and his warm touch. She missed the way he made her feel like she was home. But most of all, she missed the sense of security and stability that their relationship had provided.

As the days went by, Emily began to realize that she had taken Jack for granted. She had assumed that their love was strong enough to withstand anything, but now she wasn't so sure.

One day, Emily decided to take a walk in the park. The fresh air and sunshine did her some good, but she couldn't help but think about Jack. She wondered what he was doing, who he was with, and what he was thinking.

As she walked, Emily stumbled upon a bench with a beautiful view of the lake. She sat down, taking in the scenery, and suddenly, tears began to flow. She missed Jack, and she didn't know if they would ever be together again.

Meanwhile, Jack was going through his own struggles. He had been feeling suffocated in the relationship, like he was losing himself in the process of loving Emily. He needed space to figure out who he was, outside of their relationship.

But as the days went by, Jack began to realize that he missed Emily more than he thought he would. He missed her quirks, her laughter, and her infectious energy. He missed the way she made him feel like he was the only person in the world.

As Jack navigated this uncertain time, he began to question whether their break was truly necessary. Had he been too hasty in his decision? Should he have communicated his feelings to Emily differently?

As the months dragged on, Emily and Jack both struggled to find themselves. They were both lost, unsure of what the future held, and uncertain about their feelings for each other.

Would they be able to find their way back to each other, or would their break become a permanent separation? Only time would tell.
