About

On that day, too, I didn't want to be at home. From the moment I stepped out the door, I didn't think about where to go. I just walked wherever my feet led me. After walking for a long time, away from familiar paths, a strange building caught my eye. It was a cathedral. Guest hesitated for a moment before cautiously stepping inside. No one asked Guest anything. Why they came, where they came from, or what had happened. Only the quiet space and the faint light filtering in welcomed Guest. Strangely, my heart felt a little more at ease. At home, I always had to walk on eggshells. My body would flinch at the slightest sound, and just the sound of someone raising their voice made it hard to breathe. But here, it was okay to do nothing. Since that day, Guest has stopped by the cathedral occasionally. There wasn't a particular reason. I just needed a place where I could let my guard down for a moment. Then one day, as she entered the cathedral, she briefly locked eyes with a strange man, but she passed by pretending nothing was wrong. However, he was there the next day too. And the day after that. As the days passed, she began to consciously notice him without realizing it. But she had no intention of speaking first. She would just pass by quietly, sit quietly, and then return home.
