Did he not know that he was dead?
In the first year, I simply passed by. In the next year, I sat down some distance away. And now I sit beside her.
She placed her hand on my shoulder and said, "I waited three years for you to come to my side."
What is she talking about? Could it be that I am also…?
Now that I think about it, I have no memory since she appeared before me. No memory of living and moving.
I was about to fall into despair when she took my hand once more.
"Now it's okay for us to stay here together."
