After the night everything breaks, Milo walks away. Not from rebellion, not from courage but from a house that no longer holds him, from words left unsaid, and from a grief too heavy to explain. With no plan and nowhere to return to, he follows the railroad tracks out of town, slipping quietly beyond the edges of the life he once knew. What begins as escape becomes drift. Days blur together beneath open sky and concrete bridges, among people who live without schedules or explanations. Milo learns how far freedom can stretch before it begins to feel empty, how hunger sharpens choice, and how silence can sometimes feel safer than answers. Guided only by movement and the strange companionship of the road, he enters a world that exists alongside society but remains largely unseen. But the past has a way of catching up even in forgotten places. And when it does, Milo is handed something small and unexpected. As he continues his journey, each step forward pulls him between two paths-the life he's running from and the one quietly calling for him.
