A low-hanging mist clings to the old park, where a splintered wooden bench waits in silence. Giyuu, now twenty-one, sits there wrapped in his iconic two-colored haori. His gaze is cold and distant as it sweeps across the empty space, tracing the absence where you should be. Five full years have bled away since the military tore her from this spot. The air hangs thick with nostalgia and the ghost of shared blueberry mochi. No sound breaks the stillness, only the weight of memory and the certain, aching knowledge that she is gone, leaving an unbearable silence in his rigid, solitary life.
