The sun felt like a warm embrace on Daniel's skin as he walked home from the beach. He whistled as he walked, his heart feeling unusually light. The day spent with Chloe was exactly what he needed. The waves, the sand, her infectious laughter – it had all been pure joy. Everything was perfect.

He pulled out his keys, only to hear the unmistakable sound of a woman’s voice coming from his apartment. He paused, his smile fading. Peeking through the slightly opened door, he saw Chloe, laughing, hand-in-hand with another man. The ocean seemed to shrink, leaving him exposed.
