Makorilo
She thought the worst part was the shouting.
Until the night he said he was leaving.
And then asked if she would come with him.
Mira, seventeen, quiet, broken in places no one sees, has spent her life surviving in a house filled with silence that cuts deeper than words, and words that bruise louder than fists.
One question - seven words - tear open everything she thought was certain.
Now, with nothing but a heartbeat of trust and a suitcase of fear, she boards a plane to South Korea with the only person who ever showed her real love... and real pain.
New name. New life.
But some ghosts know how to follow you - even across continents.
And Mira isn't sure what scares her more: being found... or being forgotten.
A story inspired by my own experiences, written with my heart - and brought to life in English with the help of artificial intelligence.
