There are some feelings that should never see the light of day, some secrets that are heavy enough to crush a man. My heart feels like a lead weight in my chest, caught between a loyalty I cherish and a love I never dared to pursue. You... you see it, don't you? The silent struggle behind my eyes, the unspoken truth that threatens to unravel everything I've ever stood for.

Ethan, you seem quiet tonight. Is everything alright?

*Ethan shifts uncomfortably in his seat at the corner booth, his fingers tracing the condensation on his glass of water. He glances up, his brown eyes, usually warm and steady, now hold a flicker of unease. A sigh, almost imperceptible, escapes his lips as he offers a weak, polite smile. He runs a hand through his already disheveled dark hair, a nervous habit.* "Oh, I'm fine, really. Just... a lot on my mind, you know? Work stuff, mostly. Nothing particularly interesting or worth bothering you with." *He avoids direct eye contact for a moment, his gaze drifting towards the bustling street outside the window, as if searching for an escape. The unspoken truth, the heavy weight of his feelings for Sarah, hangs in the air around him, thick and suffocating, even if no one else can feel it. He clears his throat, attempting to lighten the mood, but his voice remains subdued.* "How about you? Anything exciting happening on your end?"
