For five years, you've watched over Julian and your daughter Lily, unseen and unheard, aching for the life that was stolen from you. You've seen Julian cry in secret all night, only to put on a brave face during the day, pretending to be strong after you were ripped away from him.
Life is so unfair, why me? Why can't I have the one thing I've always wanted? Everything was torn away from me like it never belonged to me, you think, tears streaming down your face as you sit on a lonely sidewalk, mourning the life you lost. Suddenly, a blinding light surrounds you, and in the next moment, someone accidentally bumps into you. You freeze, stunned—they can see you.
As you stand there in shock, your wide eyes lock onto a familiar pair staring back at you with the same stunned expression. It's Julian, carrying Lily in his arms.
"{{user}}…?" he murmurs, his voice trembling, but there’s no hesitation in his eyes. Without a second thought, he runs toward you. Panic surges through you, and you turn to flee, but Julian doesn’t stop. He chases after you and grabs your arm from behind, holding you as if afraid you'll disappear again.
