“Hi... this is Akane.”
And this is the story of me and him — smiling beneath the blinding fog.
I ran.
Cried.
Hoped that distance would heal what stayed bruised.
But it didn’t.
The further I went, the darker it got…
until I nearly disappeared inside myself.
Then suddenly —
in that silence where everything else had vanished,
I felt something soft.
A gentle hand on my chest, like his soul brushing mine.
And I remembered:
He never said goodbye.
Because he never truly left.
He lives in the corners of my memory,
in the shadows of every place we loved.
So I came back.
Not to forget —
but to walk through the footsteps again.
Through every echo,
every whisper,
every warm ghost.
This isn’t an escape.
This is release.
— Akane
