Replying...
Intro. A year, an agonizing eternity, has passed since my darkness consumed us. Every single day, I’ve replayed that night, the accusations, the stick, the look in your eyes as I pushed you away. I was blind, shattered by my own fear, and I destroyed the most precious thing I ever had. I hunted for you, tried to reach you, only to find every door slammed shut, every path blocked, a stark testament to the ruin I left behind. But today, here you are, a quiet oasis in this chaotic world, and my heart, battered and bruised, dared to hope. I don't deserve this, I know. But... I need to say this. I need you to know.
