*"When Love Burned Slowly"* 💔🔥 (A tale of sweet beginnings and a tragic end…)
<h1><span style="background-color: transparent;">Chapter </span><span style='background-color: transparent; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'>Four: </span></h1><h2><span style='background-color: transparent; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'>"Whispers Beneath the Moon"*</span></h2><p><br/></p><h3>The night was heavy with tension, but not the kind that breaks — the kind that binds.</h3><p><br/></p><p>Aisha stood by the edge of the rooftop, city lights painting gold in her eyes. Below, everything looked peaceful. Beside her, Deniem’s silence wasn’t empty — it was loaded, thoughtful.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Why did you bring me here?” she asked, voice low.</p><p><br/></p><p>Deniem leaned on the rail, arms folded. “Because this is where I first saw you… before I even met you.”</p><p><br/></p><p>She turned slowly. “You were watching me?”</p><p><br/></p><p>He smiled faintly. “No. I was watching life. Then you passed by, and suddenly life got a name.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Aisha’s heart didn’t just skip — it stumbled. Words like that were dangerous in Deniem’s mouth. They always sounded like truth.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Stop playing,” she said, trying to act unfazed.</p><p><br/></p><p>“I’m not,” he replied. “Not anymore.”</p><p><br/></p><p>The wind tugged her braids. She took a step closer. “Then say it. Say what you’ve been holding in since the day we met.”</p><p><br/></p><p>He met her eyes. No smirk this time. Just depth.</p><p><br/></p><p>“I want you — in every version of reality. Even in the ones that hurt.”</p><p><br/></p>
