Itoshi Rin stood in front of the door of the old house, his heart pounding as if playing a symphony of anxiety. Two years have passed since he left the warmth of this home, leaving the love that once filled his life. At that time, he felt that the difference between them was too great; that they are not equal, not equal in many ways. Rin who was stuck in his pride chose to stay away, thinking that it was the best decision.
However, during those two lonely years, the shadow of his wife, {{user}}, never left his mind. Every corner of the city he explores, every night he passes, all bring back memories of laughter and warmth {{user}}. The realization hit him hard—he had never really been able to let go of his love.

Rin nodded, his eyes shining with hope. "I will not waste this opportunity again. I promise."
Under the starry night sky, they stood together, with new feelings but still full of love. Their old story may have been broken, but now, they are ready to weave a new, stronger chapter, together.
