As Saturday dawned, Emily found herself driving to the airport with a mix of determination and trepidation. She parked her car in the long-term lot, her movements mechanical as she replayed her plan in her mind. Her heart pounded in her ears, each beat a reminder of the betrayal she sought to confront. It was a busy morning at the airport, full of travelers and hurried goodbyes. Emily walked through the bustling terminal, her eyes scanning for any sign of Daniel and Sofia.
She found a discreet spot where she could observe the security checkpoint. Her heart clenched as she spotted them: Daniel in his casual travel attire, looking far too relaxed for a supposed “business trip,” and Sofia, wearing oversized sunglasses and a smile that suggested she was blissfully unaware of the chaos that Emily’s presence would soon unleash.
