Chapter 20

┗━━━━━━━━┛

The soothing tune of the night's silence comforts every part of your body, from your head to your toes. A couple of your hairs fly loose in the gentle breeze, allowing you to take a deep breath of the entrancing air. While you rock back and forth on the swing, grasping the icy tiny chain with your hands, you may find yourself wondering aloud, "What purpose do I have to be here?"

Seeing the stars that twinkle in the night sky with eyes that are empty and diminish with every light.

A woman's voice called out, "Hey," and you snapped out of your stupor at the exquisite image. You look down and notice a brown shoe, then up and notice some random old lady. "Are you feeling okay, honey?"

The sweetness of her voice causes your heart to constrict, it feels foreign, and the sense of familiarity you have with her voice is something you cannot afford to lose.

"..." As she awaited your reaction, you maintained eye contact with her exquisitely gorgeous face, but remained silent. You lost your grasp on the swing and placed your palm on your lap, while your clenched fist made touch with another soft object, a hand. The older woman's hand touches your knuckles, and she sat next to the swing on which you were seated. Despite her white hair and wrinkles, she was still stunningly beautiful and as youthful as ever. "I might be a random old woman." She hesitated for a moment before continuing, "I understand that life is difficult, but I also understand that you can overcome it."
