Ghost In the Shadow
Description
A man, desperately running away from his smothering fate.
A woman, gradually picking up the missing pieces of her past.
Does staying alive in the shadow counts as living?
My inspiration:
We - The Rain
Wonder Boyz - All About You

Foreword
Autumn rain.
Each fallen drop was piercing to the skin; its coldness numbing to the bone. A figure, rather thin and limp, staggered under the dim street lamp. He fought hard to stay conscious as he finally took shelter under an apartment building. He forced himself with whatever strength left in his body and climbed the stairs to the first floor.
The young guy who was soaked from head to toe stopped in front of a door and pulled out a metal key from his pocket. He attempted to insert the key into the keyhole but his blurry sight and shaky hands weren’t helping.
He refused to give up, but his knees unbuckled against his own will, causing him to bump against the wooden door and slid to the floor. After seventy hours of non-stop flight, he was finally unconscious.
