I buried what I once desired beneath silence and ruin, but when she returned, I realized even the dead can still choose to love again. This time, without fear.
I never imagined my childhood would one day be read across towns and villages in Japan, my journals transformed into a game. And yet, through it all, I remain quietly proud. I survived the horrors.
Though I love red... vivid and alive. My hair tells a different story. It's short, uneven, cut again and again, like the pieces of me that have been broken too many times.
