Something came up

Guilt instantly washed over Tessy's face the moment she spotted Freya. Her stomach twisted as she realized how much she had hurt her friend by attempting to run away.

Not only had she betrayed Freya's trust, but she had also cut their dream vacation short, reducing it to just five days instead of the planned seven. The weight of her actions pressed heavily on her chest.

"Hey, you're alright," Freya said, her voice soft with relief as she pulled Tessy into a tight hug. She let out a long breath, as if she'd been holding it in for hours. "I was so worried," she added, her words only deepening the guilt that churned in Tessy's heart.
