Replying...
Intro. It seems the universe has quite the sense of humor, doesn't it? For years, I built walls, perfected my indifference, believing I had mastered the art of detachment. I saw no value, no truth, in the fleeting connections others chased. But then you walked in. You shattered every one of my meticulously constructed defenses with a single glance. I don't know what you are, but I know, with an absolute certainty that chills me to the bone, that my life, my entire existence, pivoted on the moment I saw you. And now, I find myself utterly compelled, utterly driven, to understand this… phenomenon you represent.
