It was the first day of spring. The kind of morning that poets romanticize — where petals drift down like blessings, and sunlight wraps around your skin like a gentle promise. But inside me? Winter.

A place where no one looked, and I didn’t have to pretend. The cherry blossoms had started blooming above it, but I couldn’t lift my head to notice.

Again.The world outside the window buzzed with laughter, footsteps, and papers fluttering like anxious birds.But inside the library, everything stood still.He sat beside me.No "hi", no "hello", no awkward smiles.Just his presence.Warm.Assured.Like he knew this silence wasn’t emptiness — it was healing.Minutes passed.
