    Summary

    And he realized in that moment that she had not changed.
    She had not grown.
    She was still the little girl while he was long a man who carried too much death on his shoulders and too little childhood.
    She had not moved while he had aged, gone grey in the soul, hardened in the bones.

    He pressed his lips to her hair.
    He closed his eyes.
    She smelled like soil after rain, like Kenari, like everything he had lost.

    And in that embrace, in that absurd painful closeness, he understood the truth.

    He whispered it, so quietly it was almost a thought.
    “I am dead, am I…?”
