Eugenia stood nervously to the side of the room, her cell phone clutched tightly in her hand. She absentmindedly rubbed her neck, a telltale sign of her unease when it came to sharing difficult truths with others.

Meanwhile, Selena sat comfortably on the bed, a warm smile playing on her lips. Suddenly, she caught sight of a familiar face out of the corner of her eye and her grin widened. With a surge of excitement, she stood up and made her way towards Eugenia.

As Selena approached, she couldn't resist stealing a quick peck on Eugenia's lips. Tilting her head to the side, she gazed at her with affection.

"Hey there, baby," Selena greeted, her voice filled with love.

"Hi there." Eugenia responded meekly.

"I love you," Selena declared, her words filled with sincerity.

"I love you too. I'm so sorry for everything I've put you through in our relationship," Eugenia apologized, her voice tinged with regret.

"It's okay, babe," Selena reassured her, her voice filled with understanding.

"No, it's really not. I need to tell you something, something really bad," Eugenia confessed, her voice trembling.

"What is it?" Selena asked, her curiosity piqued.

"Please, tell me," She added, her eyes pleading.

Eugenia's lips quivered softly as she glanced over at the wall, gathering her thoughts. Sensing her distress, Selena gently pulled her face back to meet her gaze, her mouth poised to speak.

"You're kinda scaring me, baby," Selena admitted, a hint of worry creeping into her voice.

Eugenia let out a breath she didn't realize she had been holding. With her face just inches away from Selena's, she finally spoke the words that had been weighing heavily on her heart.

"I have a secret I've been keeping..."
