The night sky spread out above like a peaceful canvas, sprinkled with a million stars, painting a tranquil scene.
Despite the peaceful night, my feelings were turbulent.
| was still in the Silver Pack. Because it was already gettingte, Arthur had suggested we spend the night at their house. Initially,
| hesitated to agree, but when | saw Carrie and An''s pleading eyes, | couldn''t resist and agreed to stay the night.
I nestled into the soft and incrediblyfortable bed they had prepared for me... Inside the guest room, Carrie had lit scented
candles, filling the air with my favorite aroma. It was a cozy setting, afortable ce for me to take a rest. Yet, inside my
chest, restlessness started to linger within me until it felt like it would swallow me whole.
As | inhaled the familiar scent of the Silver Pack and gazed at the sky outside the window, memories | tried hard to forget rushed
back like a relentless wave. They struck me like a heavy brick.
Closing my eyes, | couldn''t escape the image of An''s innocent face, and it weighed on me like a burden.
Don''t get me wrong... | was genuinely happy for Arthur and Carrie. | was very happy to learn about the family they created. But
deep down... whenever | saw An, my heart couldn''t help but ache for my unborn son. | clutched my chest as the pain
threatened and started to overwhelm me. The pain that was as vivid as ever.
| vividly recalled a dream | once had, where | saw the face of a little boy.
He had curly ck hair and dark eyes, reminiscent of ke. He looked very simr to An too. When | looked at An, it was
like glimpsing into the face of my lost child, making my shoulders tremble.
No matter how many years had passed, the pain of losing my son hadn''t diminished. Over time, the paon did not disappear, |
had only learned how to cope with it. Thus, lying in that bed | felt | was being suffocated... | felt like drowning in a relentless sea
of anguish, with no lifeline in sight.
Aurora, deep within me, remained silent, yet | could feel her sharing in my pain, her own quiet whimper of anguish.
| couldn''t bear it any longer. Ignoring the risk of being seen, | donned my cloak and ventured out into the forest.
In the midst of the familiar trees, | walked, step by step, letting the forest embrace me. Each crunch of leaves beneath my boots
and the gentle hush of the wind through the leaves offered a kind of sce... It was like a reminder to me that the world was
much bigger than my pain. The moon, a bright and distant friend, watched over me, casting its silvery light on my path. But
despite this, my pain did not go away.
After a while, | saw something that made my body freeze on the spot.
| looked at the ce, my heart was rippled with excruciating pain.
| stood still and did not move. | remained paralyzed and allowed the cold wind to bite my skin. | weed it, hoping it would,
even just for a moment, numb the pain that threatened to consume me. But, no matter how long | stood there, the pain did not
lessen... it even felt stronger.
At that very moment, | felt vulnerable. | felt utterly helpless and powerless... until unknowingly, a single tear escaped my eye.
A few minutester, | heard the faint rustle of leaves behind me, a sign that someone had arrived. But when | caught a familiar
scent on the breeze, | remained still in my spot.
Momentster, a warm cloak was gently draped over my shoulders, wrapping me in aforting, familiar fragrance.
"You seem so cold. Have you been standing here for long?" ke''s voice, soft and gentle, provided a soothing balm for my
grieving heart. Unable to hide the pain, | closed my eyes, offering no response.
“Arthur mentioned you were here. | had my doubts, but you really are here," ke said, his hands resting on my shoulders, a
gesture offort and support.
"This ce holds so much pain for you. But you''re really here."
| continued gazing at the distant horizon, lost in my thoughts. "It''s a painful ce for me," | whispered softly. "But it''s painful for
you too."
The thick forest surrounding us was the very spot where | had been attacked, the ce where we had lost our child.
ke''s grip on my arm tightened, not to hurt, but to convey his shared anguish. "You''ve beening here since that day.
Doesn''t this ce haunt you?" | asked him.
For a moment, ke remained silent, his emotions evident in the furrowed lines on his face. Then, with a heavy sigh, he replied,
“Every day. It haunts me every single day."
“Every day, | return here, haunted by my inability to protect you... and our child," ke''s voice wavered at the end.
| reached out and took ke''s hand, and together, we stood in silence, silently looking at the spot that was filled beautifully with
