The man in the reflection resembled a zombie with hollowed cheeks and lifeless eyes. A gloomy, somber energy surrounded him.
During the time he lost Luna, he truly lived like a living dead.
Five years ago, he and Luna had promised each other that they would grow old together. But when did he start to change?
Was it when he got tired of the simple, peaceful life and sought excitement?
