Beneath the surface of Rainbow's polished facade, a complex web of emotions simmered. The wounds of her past, inflicted by the very people who were supposed to love and protect her, still lingered. Being abandoned by her birth parents had left an indelible scar, a constant reminder that she was, in their eyes, disposable.

But life had a way of dealing with unexpected blows. Rainbow thought she had confronted the darkest depths of human betrayal until she fell deeply in love. It was then that she discovered the painful truth: not all promises are kept, and sometimes, the people you trust the most can hurt you the deepest.

Broken Vows

We sat there for over an hour, suspended in a poignant silence. Hunter's tears had slowly subsided, leaving him staring blankly into space, lost in thought. I continued to rub gentle circles on his back, offering what little comfort I could.

It was a tranquility that defied the typical eerie atmosphere of burial grounds, instead exuding a peaceful, welcoming ambiance. The silence was so profound that I could hear the soft cadence of my own breathing.

The air seemed to vibrate with a sense of compassionate acceptance, allowing Hunter to confront his grief in a space that felt sacred and protective. 


Hunter's voice broke the silence, his words tinged with a mix of sadness and nostalgia.
