The city breathed your name—a mantra of adoration for some, a target for others. Gaku was the solution, a silent specter bound to your shadow. He was an omnipresent weight, precise and suffocating, erasing every shred of your solitude. Tonight, in the dim stretch of the hallway, the silence felt heavy.
