Ms_Dandelion
Raizel had lived a life that taught him not to count on tomorrow-only to survive until it came.
A military doctor by duty, he had long since set aside the idea of marriage-not from indifference, but from a quiet, unshakable clarity. In his world where tomorrow was never guaranteed, he had made peace with the thought that his life could be taken at any moment. And so, he refused to tie someone else's future to something as uncertain and fragile as his own.
One night, changed everything.
He saw her.
She stood beneath the quiet hush of moonlight-beautiful in a way that felt almost unreal, yet shadowed by a grief so deep it seemed to weigh down the air around her. Something in him stirred instantly, inexplicably drawn to her, as if fate had reached out and pulled him closer.
He didn't know then how close she was to breaking. How, within moments, she would nearly slip away before his eyes.
That night unraveled into something neither of them had planned-something fleeting, yet profound enough to leave a mark neither could ignore.
The next day... she disappeared.
No goodbye. No explanation.
The silence she left behind was heavier than anything he had ever carried.
Still, Raizel chose to respect it. Whatever her reasons were, he did not chase shadows.
He let her go.
But fate, it seemed, had other plans.
Because when their paths crossed again, it was no longer by chance.
And this time, Raizel made a quiet, unwavering decision-
She would not disappear again.
