Amara pov:
I sat down at my study table, pulling out my books.
My fingers opened the notebook out of habit.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOQdwMeUrV
I stared at the questions.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBLtGHFtpM
Tried to answer one.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtlK5d0tLN
Then another.
Not because I was inspired.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ufhpo1Nic
Not because I had a dream.
But because I had to.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq165c3KTbW
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXUPQhBNjo
Sometimes there's no choice. No grand moment of decision. No forks in the road.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKCbRtXPCl
Sometimes, the choice is already gone—cut clean from your life before you even got to see it.
I kept writing. Slowly.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4DUP5686v
The pen dragged, the ink smudged a little, but I kept going.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuapK7dUwl8
Because I must.
And that was enough—for tonight.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2PEwlCUqe
later I curled up in bed, pulling the blanket tighter around me, but it didn't help.
Sleep wasn't coming.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzy6PfKZbn
Not even close.
I stared at the ceiling—blank eyes, blank mind.
Nothing moved. Nothing breathed loudly.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2XbchuHMX
Just silence pressing into the room like fog.
And then...
A soft sound.
A strum. Faint.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7MGMMMmTJ
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBqaH65V0I
Open.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmbuTTZlG7
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF90uYB9an
My neighbor.
His fingers strummed again.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib8rEwGKw6
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,19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDceJpOaRMR
Every name was there, but yours never bold...19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr2fLee3S8
I thought of you at every bend, loved you with breathless ache,19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbolkI0Fcf7
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBsIjRu5YO
And it hurt.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhesrzN5qOg
his voice is echocing in my ears..19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdghgizxfP
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pLeIMdwSF
I wrote all night, couldn't sleep,19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtPPMWJEon
Tried to bury what I couldn't keep.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWqwmQi4lL
In every line, in every name—19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs21kvZcRG
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8x9ZjSZSy
The guitar strings echoed softly in the night—like a quiet heartbreak shared between strangers.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkhDXNQ3yu
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9aAKiseyo
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZAKl0qSn1
I dreamed of you at every bend,19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst2eWvXdN1
Held your shadow like a friend.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmClvdIrW6y
And when the pages reached their end...19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvAEJv6Qyy
You were never really mine.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFAxJw37x3
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SWEaedcj5
He kept playing.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1lluCEhLh
As if he knew someone out there needed it.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtuyZA9l85
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQeVVoaHOD
I dreamed of you, and I still do,19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFA2ezJBf9g
But love like ours was never true.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsx4Rau2dk
It lived in silence, broke in light—19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o5MUFmbHg
You were never really mine.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IMwiuiIXa
Just a name I lost to night....
As if he knew I needed it.
I didn't know his name.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMauZ2MrD1
He didn't know my story.
But that night—19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGuaah6fa1
He gave voice to what I couldn't say.
And I cried.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMYjWRgH7E
For life.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWHnITvlO1
For the loneliness.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7If4Ta0Js
For all the nights I pretended it didn't hurt.
And for once...19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij1iOdpIcF
I didn't feel alone in the dark.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jnfKw0yAV
I gave you poems, I gave you songs,19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhMHgWVpKk
Wrote you right, but lived you wrong.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtKVZ055IS
And now I know, with every cry—19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEm5BERcgT
You were just a goodbye in disguise...19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKlDHOatfN
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KWCKvwvD2
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,19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZDmg5IP6S
You only lived inside my dreams...19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDghrjTmND
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwWtOUwj6h
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpwX4SpreS
The music was gone now.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq6IyMmEfR
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxSQ00FKXs
I looked out the window again.
His window was still open.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMykaM6FY1
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzXGXTyKv2
But the room across was still—lightless, lifeless.
I sighed, stepped back, and went into the bathroom for a shower.
The water was cold.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjlrnIPzau
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfO0FdGAzt
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YB4DXyabh
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0szw1ldKgq
Too loud.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw0vGUsVko
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexT78Xszsa
Tick.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLv7SnAJV4h
Tick.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKTo6GVipF
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7IZVm4CTr
It was empty.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJuZ1aHBfI
Just like yesterday. Just like most things.
And then, just like that—19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFf348gT58
I thought of him again.
The boy next door.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPWsHvLa6T
The guitar.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7XGUUXiZo
The late-night music.
And for a second—just one foolish second—I wondered where he went.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJIhwI8phj
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG90EHqVWF
Why his window was open, but he was gone.
And then the anger kicked in.
Why do I even care?19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi3iPWX1Jo
Why is it always a boy? Always a man? Always... them?
I blinked, looked down at my notebook. The page was empty.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX3o3rhahS
Just like me.
And suddenly, I couldn't hold it anymore.
Why is it always "he"?19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiY7j1Kq756
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?19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc2JFohOPo
Why do we stay?19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b2cwyr6Bw
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.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYqgk0IQRP
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—19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDZS4RA87H
I didn't want a love story..
I wanted peace.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKAtkwlwk6
