Chapter 01: Introduction

Betrayal from a close friend can be the most heartbreaking thing ever. It shatters trust, blurs the memories you once held so dearly, and sometimes… it even destroys the bond completely. The moment you realise you’ve been betrayed is a pain so sharp, it makes your trust drop to zero in a single heart beat. You start to question your own worth: "Am I really that bad to be betrayed by the one I trusted the most?" — the question keeps whispering in your mind, again and again, until it’s all you hear.

In this story, you’ll see what really happened after the betrayal —How Cath, the one I called my closest friend, betrayed Riya, who trusted her more than anyone else in this world.
