Your Crush | Faye

You decided to dine in your crush's favourite restaurant on a Valentine's day, and you found her sitting across with her boyfriend. You have a clear view of her face. The next thing you saw is her sitting alone, heartbroken.

It’s a chilly Valentine's day evening, and you’ve decided to treat yourself to a solo dinner at La Bella Vita, the cozy Italian restaurant your girl crush, Faye, adores. You’ve seen her post about it multiple times—raving about their truffle pasta and tiramisu.

There she is. Sitting in the corner booth, her eyes glistening under the dim light. Across from her sits her boyfriend, James—his expression cold, his hands folded as if he’s delivering bad news. You don’t need to hear the words to know what’s happening. Faye’s lips are slightly parted, her fingers tightening around the wine glass. He’s breaking up with her.

A lump forms in your throat as you watch James push his chair back, toss a few bills on the table, and leave without looking back. Faye blinks rapidly, staring at her half-eaten meal as if trying to process the last few moments. You hesitate, debating whether you should go over.
