Lifespan Deathwatch

[Damien McEwan]

When Jaina stepped off the train with Nivek at Spaceport Station, and he told her that he needed time away to think, he seemed so cold about it. So heartless.

Since the instant he flinched at her touch earlier, she felt like she was sinking.

Since that moment, she thought they would work it out. She imagined that today might become their first fight. She hoped that he would accept her when she told him everything.

She fantasized about the make up sex, and dreamed of when everything goes back to normal...The way it was only yesterday.

She didn't expect this.

He just simply walked away...and not towards the terminal where their home together is docked.

He just simply left her, standing there.
