Norris Moore thought back to six months ago when she first met Trenton Smith in the private room of that bar. He had watched her with a calm and indifferent gaze, his voice devoid of emotion as he said, "You finally let me dream of you."
It turned out that he wasn't really drunk at the time.
It was just...
He simply couldn't believe she was still alive.
Even now, he couldn't bring himself to believe in the fact of her existence.
The loss was so painful that even gaining seemed like a dream, ethereal and elusive, unclear whether it was real or just another... figment of his imagination.
She had trapped him.
Those three years... over a thousand days and nights, every day and night, every minute and second, he had endured the fact that Norris Moore no longer existed in this world.
