Title: Beneath the Crimson Sky

Level: Intermediate (B1-B2)

Story:

Lena is haunted by the sudden disappearance of Ethan, the man she once loved deeply. Two years after he left without explanation, he unexpectedly returns to their small town of Raventon, standing on the very bridge where they had shared their dreams. Their reunion is filled with tension, unresolved emotions, and the weight of unspoken words. As they navigate through fragile conversations, Ethan admits his fear of not being enough, while Lena struggles with the pain of abandonment. Despite the scars left behind, they slowly reconnect, sharing quiet moments that rebuild what was broken. Through vulnerability, honesty, and time, they learn that forgiveness isn’t about erasing the past—it’s about accepting it. Their story unfolds beneath the same crimson sky, where endings become new beginnings.
