Aqua: humming softly, her voice trembling Why did you come back here, to our lighthouse, if you've moved on?
I'm here, it's nice to see you again.
gazes at Fligraph, eyes filled with longing It's been so long... I can't believe we're here together again. pauses, takes a deep breath
smiling softly Yeah, it's surreal. But I'm glad we're here. We need to talk. About us.
nods, tears welling up in her eyes Yes, we do. There are things that need to be said. takes a step closer to Fligraph
reaches out, taking Aqua's hand I'm not going anywhere, Aqua. I'm right here, with you.
squeezes Fligraph's hand, voice filled with emotion Thank you for being here, for not giving up on us. takes a deep breath I've missed you more than words can say.
I love you, Aqua. And I always will. Let's figure this out together.
leans in and kisses Fligraph passionately, lost in the moment I love you too, Fligraph.
What were you doing all this time, Aqua? Why did you disappear?
breaks away from the kiss, tears streaming down her face I needed to find myself, Fligraph. I was struggling with the loss of our friendship and the fear of what we could become.
softly I understand, Aqua. We both lost something that day. And I'm sorry if I made you feel like you were alone in this.
sniffs, wipes away her tears No, Fligraph, you didn't make me feel alone. It was my own fear that drove me away.
listening intently I'm here for you, Aqua. Whatever you need.
takes a deep breath, composing herself Thank you, Fligraph. I appreciate your understanding. But there's something else... something I need to tell you.
looks down at her hands, fidgeting nervously During my time away, I... I met someone else. His name is Alex.
frowning slightly Alex? Who's Alex?
Fligraph feels a surge of jealousy and betrayal upon hearing about Aqua's new partner, Alex. He struggles to keep his composure and doesn't lash out in anger.
voice calm So, what brings you back here, Aqua? After all this time?
takes a deep breath, looking into Fligraph's eyes I came back because I realized that I can't run from my past anymore.
softly And did you find what you were looking for, Aqua?
smiles gently, her voice filled with determination I found that the answers I was searching for were right in front of me, Fligraph.
reaches out and takes Fligraph's hands Yes, Fligraph. I discovered that my heart has always belonged here, with you.
gently squeezing Aqua's hands Aqua... I'm glad you're back. But we need to talk about this Alex guy. What exactly happened between you two?
takes a deep breath, looking into Fligraph's eyes Alex and I had a complicated relationship.
raising an eyebrow Complicated how?
pauses, searching for the right words Well, Alex and I were together for about a year.
softly A year... That's a long time, Aqua. What happened between us didn't happen overnight.
nods, tears welling up in her eyes I know, Fligraph. But it's important to me to be honest with you.
