Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

That would explain his constant attention.
The puzzle pieces began to fit together. It made sense in a way she hadn’t considered before.
Soon after, another message came from Damon. “Apologies for the delay.
I was in the bathroom. It was actually my friend who responded to you earlier. He’s been nursing a broken heart and envies my
popularity with the ladies. His response was meant as a joke. I regret coming with him on this trip. We can hang out together
another time.”
Sabrina’s thoughts became a tangle of confusion
Were her assumptions wrong the whole time?
Aylin asked, “What about Bradley? I think you two would make a great couple.”
Sabrina sighed and asked, “How does that relate to anything?”
Aylin turned her phone around for them to see. “Bradley just messaged me. He’d like to join us.”
Recalling a previous dinner with Bradley and Sabrina, Aylin continued, “I couldn’t help but notice the chemistry between you two.
It’s clear that he’s quite taken with you.”
Surprised, Sabrina inquired, “Isn’t he supposed to be filming?”
“He’s wrapped up his shooting. He has a day off tomorrow and wants to join us. I believe he’s coming specifically to see you.”
Bettie was surprised. “Oh, so you and Bradley—”
“No, no! Bradley and I are just friends,” said Sabrina, quickly denying it.
“Then why are you getting so worked up about it?”
“He doesn’t have that much time to spend, and we’re done here. Why don’t we go back to Violetness, have dinner with Bradley,
and then head straight to Sagecoast?”
“Sounds like a plan,” Bettie said, agreeing with Aylin. With a mischievous twinkle in her eye, she cast a playful glance to Sabrina.

“Isn’t it exciting? As soon as you’re single, the suitors come rushing in, three at a time!
Sabrina furrowed her brows in annoyance. “Don’t be ridiculous.”
“Alright, alright. I won’t push it. You make up your own mind. But both Damon and Bradley are a good catch.”
Sabrina pursed her lips and shook her head.
Bradley sent his flight information to Aylin. They still had plenty of time to spare before his arrival.
They decided to make the most of it and headed to the hotel’s restaurant. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air. They
sat at a table, sipping their drinks and chatting about their plans. Soon, the time came to pack their things and leave Shadowlake
behind.
After checking into a hotel, they made their way to the airport. The airport was bustling with travelers, creating a sense of
excitement and anticipation.
