I ran into the room and locked the door. As I fell on the floor, I grabbed a box from the old drawer. Tears streamed down my face silently as tiny white flakes of snow fell past the window, revealing a white speckled nighttime scene outside. I opened the oak box and shakily grabbed the inside contents. Inside the box were old pictures of me and Haruki, from when we were little till when we dated.
