A sentence I had heard long ago came to mind: 'That which is rough is not captured in photographs.'

I did not want to believe it until I experienced it myself, because I loved that child.

I loved the light step, the bright smile, and above all, the eyes full of dreams.

But this morning, I realized that my reflection in the mirror was not captured in any photograph.
