Amara pov:
I sat down at my study table, pulling out my books.
My fingers opened the notebook out of habit.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMHpqwphsE
I stared at the questions.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAIZKxjcjm
Tried to answer one.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyqM4uOAkg
Then another.
Not because I was inspired.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1jqgmvhsu
Not because I had a dream.
But because I had to.
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zCyx86xpu
This is life, isn't it? Doing what needs to be done, not because you want to—but because you have no other door left to knock on.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ijr3HLWuQ
Sometimes there's no choice. No grand moment of decision. No forks in the road.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWbBFVPznV
Sometimes, the choice is already gone—cut clean from your life before you even got to see it.
I kept writing. Slowly.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCAE5rtzRZ
The pen dragged, the ink smudged a little, but I kept going.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf890iAsSg0
Because I must.
And that was enough—for tonight.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzkDJBlABU
later I curled up in bed, pulling the blanket tighter around me, but it didn't help.
Sleep wasn't coming.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9zDZx35qD
Not even close.
I stared at the ceiling—blank eyes, blank mind.
Nothing moved. Nothing breathed loudly.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnSTdKTujy
Just silence pressing into the room like fog.
And then...
A soft sound.
A strum. Faint.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMItd2J184
A slow, raw note from a guitar—floating through the cold night air like a secret.
I froze.
Oh God... he's here.
I threw the blanket off and rushed to my window, pushing it open with slightly trembling fingers.
There it was—his window.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmKoyHwacd
Open.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYq9lNkvdt
A small light glowing faintly from inside.
And books—books lined on the wall behind him like silent witnesses.
He wasn't fully visible, but I could hear him.
The boy next door.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNSkHavekA
My neighbor.
His fingers strummed again.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv34uKwkI7X
This time, slower... and then his voice followed—rough, soft, broken in the most beautiful way.
[The Song – his song ..
I wrote all night, a story untold,20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ob8epTe1A
Every name was there, but yours never bold...20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ifb3L2SC6
I thought of you at every bend, loved you with breathless ache,20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTiuWEvIFt
Till I learned... you were never real. Just a shape I let break.
His voice wasn't perfect.
But it was.
Because it was honest.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2NgUkfgZP
And it hurt.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnnRR6kA0H
his voice is echocing in my ears..20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmJ4op63ep
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloon3OCqiZ
I wrote all night, couldn't sleep,20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6ssEuEbTS
Tried to bury what I couldn't keep.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvU2g29bMD
In every line, in every name—20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrQGQtF5mr
I searched for you, but you never came
I sat down slowly by the window, on the cold floor, knees pulled up to my chest.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFYCp41Qgs
The guitar strings echoed softly in the night—like a quiet heartbreak shared between strangers.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0f7WXqxWe
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerXLbPLMji
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZE0oQwmQr
I dreamed of you at every bend,20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jRknxc6T5
Held your shadow like a friend.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX00BIUv8N
And when the pages reached their end...20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIHJBzzdjY
You were never really mine.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBL71PFnz6
Just a ghost I loved in time.....
And suddenly, I felt it.
A tear.
Then another.
And another.
My fingers covered my mouth, but it didn't stop the sob from escaping.
The music didn't stop either.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipjCT18NDR
He kept playing.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u97ZAoR3A
As if he knew someone out there needed it.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWgUvCLuQp
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLXAJdEB4R
I dreamed of you, and I still do,20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn8gWRhb8t
But love like ours was never true.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscANSlSjYs
It lived in silence, broke in light—20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9K1Qj64LHx
You were never really mine.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9NODeQr7G
Just a name I lost to night....
As if he knew I needed it.
I didn't know his name.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEQlgQ90Rc
He didn't know my story.
But that night—20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmtFMJxXo8
He gave voice to what I couldn't say.
And I cried.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq8G7ac38R
For life.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl99f2orcec
For the loneliness.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUgpK3WcXl
For all the nights I pretended it didn't hurt.
And for once...20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6cXiIkuDy
I didn't feel alone in the dark.
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU93FOcNJBW
I gave you poems, I gave you songs,20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxetj5gv0n
Wrote you right, but lived you wrong.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcEYv3mxR0
And now I know, with every cry—20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2Syz5gQKs
You were just a goodbye in disguise...20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32mTbY3Vaa
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRJjj4OWNY
i was listening my eyes are closed now and slowly slowly i feel myself frifting in sleep his voice is now vanishing in air..
I bled you out in quiet screams,20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLOV9qq6sc
You only lived inside my dreams...20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NZTywVumr
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XdeVnAAiv
and soon i slept right there near the window...
I woke up where I had fallen asleep—curled near the window, head against the cold wall, knees pulled to my chest.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkgiOFYUiW
The music was gone now.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvqwVJK7hj
Only silence remained, pressed into the floor like dust.
I slowly stood up, the stiffness in my neck a quiet punishment for feeling too much.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YeerLirfQ
I looked out the window again.
His window was still open.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuDFskt1I3
But he wasn't there.
Just the faint morning air drifting in, touching everything like a memory that didn't belong to me.
I stared a little longer. Maybe hoping he'd appear again, guitar in hand, sadness in his voice.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlD6yJ5Hgr
But the room across was still—lightless, lifeless.
I sighed, stepped back, and went into the bathroom for a shower.
The water was cold.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKLCa8PDqS
Or maybe I just was.
After dressing in my college uniform—the soft blue shirt and that old skirt that swayed just past my knees—I tied my hair into a low ponytail and headed downstairs.
The house was still wrapped in sleep.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgrjy9Cf9o
Too quiet for comfort.
I walked to Mona's room, pulled the blanket off her face gently, and whispered, "Mona... wake up."
She grumbled and tried to burrow deeper.
I smiled faintly. "Don't make me use the spray bottle this time."
Her eyes snapped open she looked at me . "You wouldn't."
"Oh, I would," I teased, brushing my fingers through her hair. "Up. Now."
She groaned but sat up, and I left for the kitchen.
I started preparing breakfast—simple toast and warm milk again. My hands moved automatically, but my head...
My head felt heavy, like it had stored too many unspoken things overnight and didn't know where to put them anymore.
Mona came in, half-dressed, yawning like she hadn't slept in days.
We ate in silence. Not an awkward one, but the kind that builds between two people who have more thoughts than words.
After clearing the plates, I walked slowly toward Mom's room.
I opened the door just enough.
She was still asleep. Back turned. Same blanket. Same stillness.
I watched for a moment, trying to remember the last time she stayed awake long enough to say goodbye to us in the morning.
I didn't say anything.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsxezFEtDO
I just closed the door.
Mona and I stepped outside. The street was cool, the morning air a little softer than usual.
We walked side by side, hand in hand, our footsteps light and steady.
But in my chest, something was starting to ache again.
We still live in the same house. But we don't live the same life anymore.
This family—whatever it used to be—is drifting apart like pieces of paper in the wind. And none of us is chasing them.
The classroom was too bright.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhNXkVO8Sx
Too loud.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbHNVQvNKJ
Too everything.
The teacher was explaining something—physics, motion, energy—but all I could hear was the ticking of the wall clock above the whiteboard.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWnN78B1VW
Tick.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgLz8BZQKq
Tick.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22iC3BE2Zi
Tick.
I stared out the window.
The wind moved slowly through the trees. People walked outside, laughing, whispering, living lives I would never understand.
My eyes drifted toward the sky.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxZWu686YA
It was empty.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIhECat5Am
Just like yesterday. Just like most things.
And then, just like that—20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpd7BuieSCR
I thought of him again.
The boy next door.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowicrfkiqE
The guitar.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0paGpXaMJ
The late-night music.
And for a second—just one foolish second—I wondered where he went.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtc6JGB1rI
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTzle6vbzh
Why his window was open, but he was gone.
And then the anger kicked in.
Why do I even care?20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAlMZ70K9M
Why is it always a boy? Always a man? Always... them?
I blinked, looked down at my notebook. The page was empty.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgVvyTFUI3
Just like me.
And suddenly, I couldn't hold it anymore.
Why is it always "he"?20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjRejesmuY
Why does the world pause when a boy looks out his window with a guitar, but not when a girl walks home after strugling for life and everything ?
Why do girls bleed, break, burn—and still find ways to be soft?
And men? They get to sing a sad song and call it depth.
Why do they get to leave?20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigukGiue7c
Why do we stay?20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuJC9x5ge3
Why do we carry their damage like a second spine?
Why is every poem about men who left?
Why is every girl taught how to heal but not how to scream?
I closed my notebook slowly.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQ9mZketKl
The air felt heavier than before.
I looked at the teacher, then at my classmates, and then back at the window.
And in that moment—20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzix9YfjcIs
I didn't want a love story..
I wanted peace.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMGqvCKpYi
