The magic was gone the day she didn’t come back.
Now, every room in the house seems to drag with her absence—like the air itself had forgotten how to move. I keep her nest of trinkets by the window: a cracked mug, a broken comb, a feather she said was from an angel.
A breeze slips through the curtains, carrying the faint scent of rain. For a moment, I almost hear her laugh again—soft, quick, alive. Then it’s gone, and I’m left with the quiet hum of the world moving on without her.
There’s a ghost in my chest, whispering what I don’t need to hear but can’t stop listening to.
It tells me to keep living, to tell her story, to believe that loss isn’t the end.
I don’t answer. I just breathe. And for the first time in months, the air feels lighter.
