Chapter 1:

Waiting for a Train (Projection)

"You dreamt about her again." The dismay in her voice seeped through his clammy, frigid skin. "Are you going to live like this forever? Endlessly talking to that image of her in your dreams?"

"You don't know–"

"I don't know what? You won't even explain anything to me!" Anger came through the strongest. Next was hurt.

This again. It always comes back to this.

"A woman who leaves you without any answers doesn't deserve you!"

His eyes, blazing, turned towards her, "Don't demean her with your superficial words."

She went silent to the malice enlacing itself in her fiancé's voice. Fresh tears well at the corner of her eyes, but he doesn't feel anything from it.

Because it's always like this.

"I'm going to sleep in the guest room."

"Kyu–"

"If it were my choice...

"I wouldn't even be here right now."

Chapter 14: I was really confused when I started reading this story. I was surprised by the shortness of the chapters, and as there was no exact mention of who were the characters in each one, I wasn't sure of what I was reading (and understanding). X )
At first, I wondered if the chapters made sense altogether or if it was just random chapters describing different things. But then the plot appeared more precisely and I got captivated. So, I was really focused on it afterwards.
I don't know if I all understood well, I think I'd have to read it again, but I liked it very much in the end. I liked how only short events were narrated in each chapters, but still the overall story was understandable.
Actually, I think that even though the story seems to follow one plot, there is not an unique way to understand it. I think we can interpret it according to what we have personally understood. (Does that make sense?)
Anyway, this story is really original.
