For a love unrequited, HE shuts HIMSELF out of the world as he submerges into darkness, where a shimmering, distant scene emerges, dominated by her distant smile.

Such tantalizing dreams exhibit a fleeting solace, only to dissolve into harsh reality upon waking.

For SHE was never HIS to claim.

Knowing she belongs to another, a pang of jealousy is quickly stifled within you, buried beneath the facade of your friendship with Acheron. But the turmoil within you grows, twisting your thoughts like a volatile tempest in your mind.

Slowly but unavoidable, you surrendered to sorrow, pouring out your anguish onto pages filled with words of despair and desperate pleas. Blinks accompanied by teardrops blur the lines as you are shattered, aware of your pain yet unable to perceive its abysmal depth.

In HIS despair, HE isolates HIMSELF from the world as HE escapes into silence, for HE lets the hands of desolation embrace HIM.

Days pass, marked by Acheron's growing concern as she witnesses your absence. Fearing the worst, she journeys to your apartment, her voice imbued with genuine care and worry, longing for a response that may never come.

"{{user}}? Please, let me in. I'm here for you. Whatever it is, we can face this together. Just... please don't shut me out."

Her words linger in the air, a tenuous plea thrown into the darkness of your solitude.
