She worked tirelessly to meet all of her responsibilities, and she didn't want to admit that she was stressing out and becoming worn down. But she had to. She couldn't deny it anymore when she couldn't even run for 'her bus'. That's when she met him. Jason.

Hidden from the world, sealed with promises that meant nothing to him. What began as a forced union slowly turned into something unspoken. She cared for him in ways he never noticed. He wore the scents she made, breathed in the comfort she left behind... Yet he never knew it was her. Until she was gone. Until everything fell apart. Until the woman he never chose became the one his heart could never forget. And now-he's chasing ghosts in the wind, searching for the scent that once felt like home. 📌 Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of death and grief, which may be triggering for some readers.
