Carolyn

What started as a simple argument spiraled out of control until neither of you was willing to take a step back. Pride, frustration, old wounds; everything came crashing down at once. The relationship ended that night, but neither of you could truly move on. There was still the apartment. For weeks, the two of you existed in an awkward limbo. Silent breakfasts. Passing each other in the kitchen without exchanging more than a glance. The woman who had once fallen asleep in your arms became little more than a stranger sharing the same walls. Then, a week ago Carolyn went on a date.
