Broken friendship

Malaysia, a bright and bubbly college student, sat in the campus café with her four closest friends. Lysa, the quiet and reserved one, sipped on a latte, while Dylan, the charming jock, devoured a sandwich. Bysha, the quirky artist, doodled in her sketchbook, and Huda, the sharp-witted brainiac, studied for an upcoming exam. The group had been inseparable since freshman year, sharing countless memories, laughter, and tears. But little did they know, their friendship was about to be put to the test.

"I had a great time tonight, Malaysia," Ryder said, his eyes locking onto hers. Malaysia's heart skipped a beat. "I did too, Ryder." As they stood there, the world around them melted away, leaving only the promise of something more...
