We were best friends, but secrets ruined everything.
Silas
I’ve worked hard to get here, kept my head down and sacrificed everything. Finally, I’ve made it. But no amount of success has ever silenced the past, and it’s staring at me now. Angry, silent, and still looking at me like I’m to blame for everything bad to ever happen.

Because there are too many things we left unsaid.
Too many secrets keeping us apart.
