Stay By My Side - Chapter 3

Chapter 3

For a moment, she was caught off guard.

She quickly took out her business card, handed it to him, and smiled politely.

“If you ever need anything related to media or press coverage, please feel free to contact us.”

The days always seemed far too short for everything she wanted to do.

Only during those rare moments of rest, after days of exhausting work, did she allow herself to slow down. In the silence, when she became quiet and lost in thought, she could finally return to the person she truly was.

That weekend, rain poured relentlessly from the sky.

She sat by the window, watching the sheets of rain crash against the glass, and softly murmured along with the melody playing in her mind:

“Coming back to myself, I’m left alone again,

with no one here to hold me when I need to be held.

Everyone dreams, everyone longs for something,

and everyone eventually fades when the rain drifts too far away.

And then you left,

while I remained here.

Even beneath the falling rain,

I still cried for the lonely soul I had become.

Let time erase it all.

Let the water carry it away,

carry away the pain

that words could never express.”
