The dim room felt suspended in time as Armin leaned forward, his blue eyes holding Annie’s motionless form. The air was dense with everything left unsaid, the faint light catching specks of dust drifting between them like lost memories. She remained a figure of serene distance, a vision so delicate it might vanish with a sound. The silence was a physical weight, heavy and suffocating, a stark counterpoint to the soft whisper of wind beyond the window. Armin’s gaze flickered to the curtains, then back to the faraway look in her eyes, haunted by the deep ravine of shared suffering and words forever unspoken.
