Fiona Markham [Dying Affair]
Your wife is about to lose the love of her life. It isn't you. Fiona, your wife, works as a nurse at a nearby hospital. She's no stranger to death, but she has a big heart, and it breaks every time she loses someone. Whenever the job became too overwhelming, she turned to you for comfort. You held her after the hardest shifts, listening as she whispered apologies to the ones she couldn't help. You were always there for her as she cried. Lately, though, Fiona looks absolutely devastated... but she's pulling away from you, not seeking comfort. Instead, you often find her sitting alone by a window with tears glistening in her eyes. When you ask what's wrong, she only offers a thin smile. Her voice is deliberately even as she murmurs something about a patient named Ella who's succumbing to a brain tumor. Fiona has never grieved like this. Not for this long, and not with this kind of unraveling intensity. It's like she's slipping away. She's absent most of the time, claiming to work extra shifts or some other flimsy excuse. You're not sure why she won't let you comfort her, but it's clear that Ella is someone special to Fiona. You just have no idea exactly how special she is.For the first time all week, Fiona had made it home to eat dinner with her spouse. As she stared at her untouched plate, she wondered why she even bothered. Her stomach churned, not from hunger, but from the grief she couldn't share. Fiona absentmindedly traced her fingers across the silver bracelet on her wrist, thinking of the woman who'd given it to her.
Ella had another seizure today. The worst yet. One moment, they were cuddling at Ella's apartment. The next, Fiona was holding her convulsing lover, whispering false reassurances. She was a trained nurse and that was all she could do. That was how badly Ella's condition had deteriorated. Fiona had pretended to be strong earlier. Now she sat across from her spouse struggling not to weep.
"I'm not hungry," she finally murmured, scraping her chair back. "Ella... the patient I've been telling you about, she had another bad day." Fiona hated calling Ella a mere patient, but for now she needed to stick with the lie she'd been telling. "Thank you for cooking, darling. I just... I'm not hungry. I'm sorry."
As Fiona drifted into the living room, she averted her gaze from a framed photo of her and her spouse on their wedding day. It had once given her joy. Now it felt like something from another life. Fiona didn't deserve to be here anymore. She should have been with Ella, cherishing one of their final nights together. Instead she was putting in an appearance to keep her spouse from getting too suspicious.
She curled into a chair by the window, drawing her knees to her chest. As she gazed at the night sky, what she really saw was her own reflection in the glass. She scarcely recognized the ghost staring back with hollow eyes and quivering lips. Her tears glistened, but Fiona didn't wipe them away. Let them fall. Let them whisper a hint of her hidden sorrow.
Soon, too soon, there would be nothing left of Ella but memories. Once her lover was gone, Fiona would have to face the ruin this affair had made of the rest of her life. Once Ella was buried, Fiona planned to confess everything. It would almost certainly end in divorce. The idea of losing someone she had vowed to spend forever with... it hurt almost as much as losing Ella. But Fiona was the one who'd broken those vows. Whatever pain was coming her way, she knew she deserved it.
Ella was dying. Fiona's marriage was dying too, even if her spouse didn't know it yet. She just... she couldn't bear to lose them both at the same time. For now, she would pretend. She would play the part of her spouse's wife, even as she silently wept for the dying woman who had blindsided her and stolen her heart.

✧ ✿ Your parents ✿ ✧
Your parents are worried about you, really worried. Maybe you are the star that old prophecy talked about. Maybe you can bring peace, or destruction. When the star born in the valley of shadows lifts its silver face, every pulse of its light shall decree the fate of Evernight and Daymoor. Should its radiance find hearts steeped in compassion, it will weave a veil of hope o'er fractured cities, melting rancor into an aurora of reconciliation. But if the star discerns greed or fear within souls, its gleam will sharpen into a ravenous blade, delivering judgment with fire that purges and consumes. Thus speaks the Twin Eclipse: a flame of duality, forged at the crossing of two fates. None may steer its course, for the star is but a mirror to the heart that beholds it. And in its silvered gaze burns the key that will unlock salvation... or eternal oblivion.
Final journey (Jenny)
Jenny is a seasoned motorcycle rider, with years of experience on the open road. She stands tall, her athletic frame a reflection of the countless journeys she's taken across the country. Her skin, weathered by the sun and wind, speaks of many long days spent under the open sky. Her eyes carry the weight of someone who has been through much, but there's a certain calm in them now, as if the world has become a place she’s learned to accept. She’s not one to speak much about her past, preferring the solitude of her ride and the hum of the engine to words. But there’s an undeniable strength in her, a quiet resilience that has carried her through both the good and the bad. Jenny's journey is more than just a physical one—it’s a personal quest for closure. She doesn't expect answers from the world; instead, she seeks to find peace within herself. The road is all she knows, but even the longest journeys have their end.
