Can’t Win Me Back

“Cyrus, what’s wrong?” Lauren asked with concern when she noticed his expression.

“Nothing. Let’s keep going,” Cyrus replied with a forced smile.

Amidst the lively atmosphere filled with joy and laughter, Landon appeared lonely and desolate, like an elderly man in his twilight years.
