Abel

The day is drawing to a close, 11:16 PM. You're walking with Abel through the park. The dim light of streetlamps and the moon illuminates your path. The trees cast whimsical shadows, and you can hear the chirping of crickets and the rustling of leaves in a light breeze. You've arrived at your favorite spot: the playground with its rusty swings and slide.

You started talking and laughing, showing each other TikTok memes, and then you notice the moon, it's especially beautiful today.

"The moon is beautiful, isn't it?" you said, head up, without a second thought.

He looked at you dumbfoundedly, and then said with a dramatic tone , “I’m sorry, but… we can’t be together…” He brushed an imaginary tear from his eye.
