The voice echoed softly, almost like an interrogation.153Please respect copyright.PENANAAgkUT6bTg9
153Please respect copyright.PENANAWRJzOh06xR
"But then why… do I still feel like two people trapped in the same body?"153Please respect copyright.PENANA2Pjn2UxXyr
153Please respect copyright.PENANAtYMv6WOCtv
A heavy silence followed, stretched and suspended between timelines.153Please respect copyright.PENANAlpLi3FRWrV
Zhang Huan-An—no, perhaps it was Yu Yong-An—stood before the mirror, unable to tell who had spoken.153Please respect copyright.PENANATgVBkj5Ydg
Was it himself? A residue?153Please respect copyright.PENANAjZgwUcQmbI
Or a ghost never chosen?153Please respect copyright.PENANA3UotLevobV
153Please respect copyright.PENANAfa3ymnHOgv
"I remember your memories," he whispered, fingertips grazing the cold mirror.153Please respect copyright.PENANAOL98FoXKRQ
"But they… don't belong to me. Not entirely."153Please respect copyright.PENANAIMXP9QnY3u
153Please respect copyright.PENANAOiTfhBRT9P
From deep within, a voice emerged—not in words, but like a pulse echoing through his veins.153Please respect copyright.PENANA56318R1tw9
153Please respect copyright.PENANALUctSkosmR
"Then tell me—whose life did you live during those 281 days?"153Please respect copyright.PENANAwcZCKxTWWX
153Please respect copyright.PENANA4lgf9NM2ZX
He gave no answer.153Please respect copyright.PENANAb8e76DDnH4
153Please respect copyright.PENANADEwtLiKCHC
The reflection stared back at him—almost identical, yet not quite.153Please respect copyright.PENANAmquzTQ64XW
The posture was his, the scars too.153Please respect copyright.PENANAv55G0K1eqr
But the eyes… they carried a weight he had never known.153Please respect copyright.PENANAhSFl5IUQR8
As if from a season of dreams, shattered and reassembled deep within time.153Please respect copyright.PENANATFnk2F9RdL
153Please respect copyright.PENANAMmmkmNOKfx
"Do you remember the rooftop? That rain?"153Please respect copyright.PENANAn1pUJSBXOg
The voice pressed closer.153Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4MCM6BKXY
"That was my fear. My ending. And now, it's become yours."153Please respect copyright.PENANAvavoG9BiFP
153Please respect copyright.PENANAz7j0jTFhYg
He turned away.153Please respect copyright.PENANARVe19TUQVu
Behind him, the room lay dim and still, the air thick with undisturbed dust.153Please respect copyright.PENANAfmesE4OfX6
Since his awakening, nothing here had changed—yet the world was no longer the same.153Please respect copyright.PENANAySlwOqi7K8
153Please respect copyright.PENANAtNchwTmdmh
"They say fusion brings peace," he murmured.153Please respect copyright.PENANA0cJZh0uyV8
"But this feels more like exile. I can't go back… and I can't move forward."153Please respect copyright.PENANAM3ZstNObbd
153Please respect copyright.PENANAOhYczgd9RI
"Then—choose."153Please respect copyright.PENANARt2VqqLsVs
153Please respect copyright.PENANABkoIiGaaNM
The voice returned. This time, not from within—but behind him.153Please respect copyright.PENANAbKJY8hY5XZ
He didn't look back.153Please respect copyright.PENANAKOEPQIPpIM
He knew nothing would be there.153Please respect copyright.PENANAGx18YAyRUH
And yet, he heard it.153Please respect copyright.PENANAA5ImEapQ6V
153Please respect copyright.PENANAIstqgfRRgy
"Choose which one of you will remain."153Please respect copyright.PENANAcL8bIoiium
153Please respect copyright.PENANAi3PuuYSrMN
He clenched his fists.153Please respect copyright.PENANAnPySykGY4j
"Zhang Huan-An" and "Yu Yong-An"—names layered like truths,153Please respect copyright.PENANAokUG7fe0Vo
Too real to abandon,153Please respect copyright.PENANAUVcOksDBzg
Too entangled to claim.153Please respect copyright.PENANAIesJWqD6Ct
153Please respect copyright.PENANAvKRwgoX4s3
"What if I don't want to be either?"153Please respect copyright.PENANARL5HpOm7Fq
He asked the air, voice hoarse.153Please respect copyright.PENANACxq86zKdMC
153Please respect copyright.PENANATujjCK9QDE
"Then become—153Please respect copyright.PENANAsh3u5Ou8sI
the memory that survived the collapse."153Please respect copyright.PENANAx8bsUmBOLn
153Please respect copyright.PENANAbtlSmbRH2e
The mirror cracked.153Please respect copyright.PENANAZX80IN8CPK
153Please respect copyright.PENANAdiLCRh1xE1
Not from pressure.153Please respect copyright.PENANAxdNtkJa4Cb
Not from sound.153Please respect copyright.PENANAlSJjCrgne9
153Please respect copyright.PENANAB0CZh5qvfw
But from time.153Please respect copyright.PENANAk35zYrzzXf
153Please respect copyright.PENANAVVj5BKJCXV
As the fissure split the reflection in two, he finally understood:153Please respect copyright.PENANA7y0AJUIZci
They had never truly been separate.153Please respect copyright.PENANAGINf7jh9lF
And now, they could never fully merge.153Please respect copyright.PENANAvwh0EZo37S
153Please respect copyright.PENANAE6N3ffw8R2
They could only—153Please respect copyright.PENANAVW3OQYSPnP
153Please respect copyright.PENANAzdsMCycrnS
Overlay.153Please respect copyright.PENANAjPXWMibxaO
Fracture.153Please respect copyright.PENANA54akesQEF5
Echo.153Please respect copyright.PENANAeeARHO1S5Q

Reflections That Do Not Return153Please respect copyright.PENANAnNfZEvTlu6
153Please respect copyright.PENANAS7SH6EBhs5
When the mirror shattered, time broke with it.153Please respect copyright.PENANAuHNgYx3g06
153Please respect copyright.PENANAkX0EImA8qU
Cracks spread like a spider's web, and within each one—153Please respect copyright.PENANAxhA1VjGAt0
A different version of himself emerged:153Please respect copyright.PENANAY6wl3DBHXZ
Some young, some aged.153Please respect copyright.PENANAIzqR7wSyIF
Some cold and distant, others brimming with unshed tears.153Please respect copyright.PENANAVYfB0wZEJl
153Please respect copyright.PENANAPtcQOnbB8K
"Are these… all me?"153Please respect copyright.PENANAZwrri9jKqm
153Please respect copyright.PENANAliUMlD63MD
His voice trembled in the still air—was he asking the mirror,153Please respect copyright.PENANAL58bDsAaZF
Or questioning the soul splintered before him?153Please respect copyright.PENANA4uK2WAFwFK
153Please respect copyright.PENANAljwvQOVLSP
A shard fell, its chime like a soft wind bell.153Please respect copyright.PENANAyq8voX6ZdE
But it reflected not the room—153Please respect copyright.PENANAekwevmhcmy
153Please respect copyright.PENANAcJfvv2Psck
It reflected time:153Please respect copyright.PENANAzDZXYRT2PD
153Please respect copyright.PENANAuafh3Eda5n
A Friday dusk,153Please respect copyright.PENANAKRiirw00tZ
A Tuesday's echo,153Please respect copyright.PENANAgeg9miszRO
The moment the cross appeared,153Please respect copyright.PENANAtagWtSjSju
And the last turn of her figure.153Please respect copyright.PENANATCzGzCfUhP
153Please respect copyright.PENANAcjeJALGaOu
"You didn't choose an identity,"153Please respect copyright.PENANAjokOLrg3Yo
A voice spoke—gentle, calm.153Please respect copyright.PENANACS0ZauotP0
Neither Yang An-Ting nor Li An-Qing,153Please respect copyright.PENANADuY9w1EKTI
And yet, it held the luminous tenderness of both.153Please respect copyright.PENANAsGpxHOAthF
153Please respect copyright.PENANAI3t2GvJEE3
"You chose the version of yourself—153Please respect copyright.PENANAe7WkFJv2uD
that could survive."153Please respect copyright.PENANAzx9vwM9hI2
153Please respect copyright.PENANAllV1Czbj8G
He stared at the fragments.153Please respect copyright.PENANAaTvBkVSRZi
Each one, a future with no return.153Please respect copyright.PENANAfjRmp2wdoA
153Please respect copyright.PENANAwI1rBrS5Tj
"And what if… I choose nothing?"153Please respect copyright.PENANAT9KNmSEBLo
He asked, barely audible.153Please respect copyright.PENANAbh5LYd9Llh
153Please respect copyright.PENANAb0fTsqEE9W
"Then you'll be trapped—153Please respect copyright.PENANABW1J6AEsWC
within this fracture,153Please respect copyright.PENANA4UwLYeOJIH
until the next cycle calls you back."153Please respect copyright.PENANA9rFAjAaCR4
153Please respect copyright.PENANANMRmlg5Yuw
Silence again.153Please respect copyright.PENANApf3AaYeTgz
153Please respect copyright.PENANA6nyJMX38JZ
Then he whispered:153Please respect copyright.PENANAh4ZA1lrXOy
153Please respect copyright.PENANAzYtGHnwGq8
"I don't want to wake up again…153Please respect copyright.PENANAY8hxKBMdJi
if waking means forgetting her."153Please respect copyright.PENANA6mYtDNyp0g
153Please respect copyright.PENANATV7kUDOVde
The mirror flickered.153Please respect copyright.PENANAItv72fjbiM
153Please respect copyright.PENANAg7XTDJffzn
Memories surfaced, playing on their own—153Please respect copyright.PENANA5EL30UvwaQ
153Please respect copyright.PENANAHuOGUOyETV
"You'll forget what I said,"153Please respect copyright.PENANAitUClVbYgk
"But you'll remember the sky had dimmed…153Please respect copyright.PENANAQmLVeZv68x
and that I never left."153Please respect copyright.PENANAeD0ZEjqYaU
153Please respect copyright.PENANAnanwpcL4uC
It was her voice—Li An-Qing.153Please respect copyright.PENANAw1dSi8zZ3x
The eternity hidden within Friday.153Please respect copyright.PENANA766BlOjPbn
153Please respect copyright.PENANAM2WhGJkNAw
No ticking clock,153Please respect copyright.PENANA8uIWe8hWuV
No urgency.153Please respect copyright.PENANAUHjHvCkZf6
153Please respect copyright.PENANAHPocodUknn
Only breath—153Please respect copyright.PENANA1Le0bCOpxv
And something deeper still:153Please respect copyright.PENANA0lJ6rhjk1P
The echo of his own heartbeat,153Please respect copyright.PENANAbFuOCPkpkg
splintering across time.153Please respect copyright.PENANAuuz4JKTozJ
153Please respect copyright.PENANAhdfk1rCooa
A single crack stretched across the floor,153Please respect copyright.PENANAzB0gzaAox1
As if time itself could no longer bear its own weight.153Please respect copyright.PENANAFNQoYZvcsV
153Please respect copyright.PENANAkBu2Jtdbsu
One wrong step,153Please respect copyright.PENANAIjgqcHT8Ii
And he'd fall into a past that no longer welcomed him.153Please respect copyright.PENANAI0ojd89Wo8
153Please respect copyright.PENANAw9YPkdNpMJ
He knelt and picked up a shard.153Please respect copyright.PENANA1D4tIASIJw
Its surface stirred memory—153Please respect copyright.PENANAtGwiVHrLTs
Not his own, but sharp enough to wound.153Please respect copyright.PENANAwna5Rx200r
153Please respect copyright.PENANA4wAioamBVb
"He said he'd come back… He promised."153Please respect copyright.PENANAi8CirwHcEW
153Please respect copyright.PENANAjtUoKqQ307
It was Yang An-Ting's voice—153Please respect copyright.PENANAVpJEInSGDr
Young, certain, full of hope.153Please respect copyright.PENANAZn3VdmXq0Z
153Please respect copyright.PENANAwpwAmbY0vN
Another shard revealed Li An-Qing,153Please respect copyright.PENANAFYLOEbg3im
Standing at the end of an abandoned railway.153Please respect copyright.PENANA0iZ67GcsiP
In her eyes, a timestamp flickered:153Please respect copyright.PENANAoj0p2F4dSy
2025.2.19 // 28:01153Please respect copyright.PENANANbMhpJRE1D
153Please respect copyright.PENANAwIGevAESJa
She whispered—153Please respect copyright.PENANAUB54Ux6qRS
153Please respect copyright.PENANAFjHtOFiuWg
"Memory isn't meant for forgetting.153Please respect copyright.PENANApG6j65zytk
It's meant—for choosing."153Please respect copyright.PENANAkj0C2iK1GX
153Please respect copyright.PENANANHQNSndXxn
Something within him stirred—153Please respect copyright.PENANAdKSwjfkMsw
First gentle,153Please respect copyright.PENANA6TigJMI4eI
Then forceful,153Please respect copyright.PENANAz9JGAEt5ln
Almost irresistible.153Please respect copyright.PENANAzblCuNvRa8
153Please respect copyright.PENANANfnxf7eenl
A pull born of her voice,153Please respect copyright.PENANAwtLcBqjN9G
Of her silence,153Please respect copyright.PENANAF15nBNiASz
Of every name forgotten by time.153Please respect copyright.PENANAomqYMsbi9U
153Please respect copyright.PENANASi2rS4gu1L
"Then… how do I choose?"153Please respect copyright.PENANAVqdfragqem
He asked not the mirror now,153Please respect copyright.PENANA67MQpvF5mB
But the entire world.153Please respect copyright.PENANAowRKsuTqhA
153Please respect copyright.PENANAS0QQJUn0ly
"Choice," the voice replied through the glass,153Please respect copyright.PENANAfks799jt9E
"was never the answer—153Please respect copyright.PENANA1MQ9nhDzNG
only the cost."153Please respect copyright.PENANAICya7s9yRY
153Please respect copyright.PENANAlk3h1uSzzd
He opened his eyes.153Please respect copyright.PENANAzapq5EZQ91
153Please respect copyright.PENANA3xuBAa4bad
The fractures now pushed him toward an edge—153Please respect copyright.PENANA2IQLIrel3s
An ending already written,153Please respect copyright.PENANAXsl2Rtmqya
Yet never spoken.153Please respect copyright.PENANA0dkI4JkaJr

You Remember Too Much153Please respect copyright.PENANAXqqE6Jpfyh
153Please respect copyright.PENANAmPY5ToTXoW
"You remember too much," the voice murmured,153Please respect copyright.PENANAUh6nuCxeHJ
"And you've forgotten even more than you realize.153Please respect copyright.PENANABdxhJn8cc2
So now, only one question remains:153Please respect copyright.PENANAsSUPZrqkTa
153Please respect copyright.PENANAXl929zbPCZ
Who will you remain for?"153Please respect copyright.PENANAoKQ6KCj7vT
153Please respect copyright.PENANAVROBF8ZovO
"You've always remembered,"153Please respect copyright.PENANAu2LzvHYkxJ
Yang An-Ting's voice, soft yet unwavering.153Please respect copyright.PENANAqK6RKQ972u
153Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7uLk7KS6B
"You just didn't want to admit it."153Please respect copyright.PENANAg2O13R8Pcb
153Please respect copyright.PENANAhYUrwUdUf8
"And you've never truly let go,"153Please respect copyright.PENANA9sfBMpZi6d
Li An-Qing's voice followed,153Please respect copyright.PENANAPK18UDAhgt
Like light after the rain.153Please respect copyright.PENANAitnA6alpyv
153Please respect copyright.PENANADpavcUck5S
"Because you know—153Please respect copyright.PENANAaJnQwzMwPC
this was never yours to end."153Please respect copyright.PENANAGiU3xEMxKA
153Please respect copyright.PENANApYZEOcgE9R
He stood between the mirror and the fracture.153Please respect copyright.PENANATiFBt1lTFM
153Please respect copyright.PENANArGp9SDC1Lo
Behind him—wreckage of the past.153Please respect copyright.PENANALOHvL4yAis
Before him—a nameless exit.153Please respect copyright.PENANASZGFdYNZKq
153Please respect copyright.PENANAThGW6wZ35V
"If I can't become him…153Please respect copyright.PENANAm0bdnyIJ4c
and I can't just be myself…153Please respect copyright.PENANABiTWrPbpJF
what is left of me?"153Please respect copyright.PENANA4iUQOOJfZe
153Please respect copyright.PENANA6ra7Uob977
"Memory," they said in unison.153Please respect copyright.PENANAGp1HulAYgI
153Please respect copyright.PENANAt0HqDGa2po
Not names.153Please respect copyright.PENANAANJWjMsNaC
Not roles.153Please respect copyright.PENANA1eiO5SiuDS
But something heavier—153Please respect copyright.PENANAtgKj6Etobj
A will strong enough to pierce time.153Please respect copyright.PENANA3cOSumbxeg
153Please respect copyright.PENANAMwE8XVNSOp
If names fade, let them.153Please respect copyright.PENANAhBbfDcECEg
If roles collapse, stop defining them.153Please respect copyright.PENANA63lQnbcjNe
153Please respect copyright.PENANAldyC3soKTU
"You don't need a name,"153Please respect copyright.PENANADUXn48QFDq
Yang An-Ting whispered.153Please respect copyright.PENANAM5cB8BORg6
"Because now—you remember us."153Please respect copyright.PENANAe0NZ06TZDz
153Please respect copyright.PENANAvfRC144rIn
"You only need to keep walking,"153Please respect copyright.PENANAXDCLp6wih1
Li An-Qing said next.153Please respect copyright.PENANABGNNmcQOiW
"Not for anyone. Not even for yourself."153Please respect copyright.PENANARAJhTXhzxe
153Please respect copyright.PENANAdJ5d5z3x2S
The fractures began to close—153Please respect copyright.PENANAyzJ6ZkmnpX
Not as an end,153Please respect copyright.PENANAuJF0IQM6Kp
But as a silent reformation.153Please respect copyright.PENANASO18op6U8i
153Please respect copyright.PENANAKGRWwqDY7C
Shattered timelines intertwined,153Please respect copyright.PENANA2T3A3x73El
Forming a new path—153Please respect copyright.PENANAXZ4OAbOAsb
Free of judgment,153Please respect copyright.PENANAP99gmQ1PnF
Free of labels,153Please respect copyright.PENANANRn2Qyuwbc
Free of the need to look back.153Please respect copyright.PENANA6dFrTGlz0X
153Please respect copyright.PENANAKwl3KqDyXL
It was—153Please respect copyright.PENANAHTHgiF5A9T
153Please respect copyright.PENANAYZ4JiIHgbe
The third way.153Please respect copyright.PENANAeeqSeiCYwj

Not return.153Please respect copyright.PENANANQwe0yaY3a
Not repetition.153Please respect copyright.PENANAurpzn3Obcm
153Please respect copyright.PENANAj9ui2PRoWm
But—153Please respect copyright.PENANAySJwfiSGLg
153Please respect copyright.PENANAWnIZMQT0Ni
A future with no name.
