The Halazia Chronicles
Hongjoong worked alone in his cramped room, surrounded by wires, half-finished beats, and the cold glow of his laptop screen, the cursor blinking like a dying star. Midnight had folded itself around the tiny space, the walls thin enough to hear the city sigh in its sleep. It wasn’t much, but it was his—his first real space since leaving home to chase a dream his parents never understood.

Aubade. Runner-Up in Through the Keyhole Challenge.
We walked up to the bluff overlooking the river that day, hoping for closure. James had made a cross out of desiccated oak and carved your name on it with the dates. Someone brought flowers, a small bottle of Jameson (your favorite), and a pack of Camels to leave behind for you. We ignored the certainty that teenagers, arriving like clockwork just before sunset to party, would pilfer the alcohol and cigarettes. If you were there, you'd have gladly, freely offered it to them, anyway.
