Two people from different countries meet in a university. Somehow along the way, she began developing feelings for him. He'll be leaving the country sixteen months from now, and she's having difficulty letting him go. She's been imagining the day of his departure a whole lot.
Writing became her coping mechanism, and she's translated her anxieties into this chapter of this book. "Departure" is based entirely on my personal experience, written with no goal in mind except to have a platform to let him go.
Maybe I'll show this story to him one day. Maybe I'll never tell him. Who knows?
