They shared a moment of quiet laughter, the tension in the room slowly dissipating. Ethan’s unwavering support was like a balm to Harley’s wounded heart, and for the first time since waking up, she allowed herself to feel hopeful.

“You know,” Ethan began, a thoughtful look on his face, “sometimes letting go is the bravest thing you can do. It’s not about weakness—it’s about making room for something better.”

Harley looked into Ethan’s eyes, seeing the genuine care and affection there. She realized that maybe, just maybe, this was the chance she needed to redefine her life on her own terms.
