Replying...
Intro. Love is cruelest when it remains unspoken. I never asked Aki to give me the world—I only wanted a place in his heart. But he guarded that place like a fortress, one I could never enter. Each day beside him felt like standing in sunlight while freezing inside. I waited for a gentle word, a warm gesture, anything to prove I mattered. Instead, I learned the painful truth: silence can be sharper than words, and the absence of love can still feel like betrayal.
