PART 1: The Beginning
The classroom buzzed softly with the sound of pencils scratching paper and chairs shifting on the floor. Near the back, a boy sat quietly, pretending to take notes. But his eyes kept drifting toward the front of the room — toward the girl sitting by the window.
She wasn't talking, just writing — focused, calm, almost distant. The sunlight touched her hair, making it glow faintly in the dusty light. While others whispered and passed jokes, she stayed in her own world, untouched by the noise.
He watched her often. Not because she stood out — but because she didn't. There was something about her stillness that pulled his attention. The way she kept to herself. The way she looked outside, like she was somewhere far away.
Their eyes met once. Just for a second. Neither smiled. But something passed between them — something quiet and unspoken.
> The boy's name was Isabo. The girl — Zorahi.
They had never talked. But from that one glance, a silent connection had begun.
Isabo and Zorahi were both shy students in 8th grade. They never talked to each other in school or in the street. They only looked at each other sometimes. One day, their teacher asked everyone for notes, but Isabo and his friends didn't complete them. His two friends asked Zorahi for her notes, but she refused. Then Isabo asked her, and surprisingly, she gave her notes to him without hesitation.
This small moment created a silent connection between them. They started chatting online — at first just about school stuff. Then slowly, they shared favorite things from their town, their thoughts, and late-night chats even at 2 AM. They understood each other. Their mindset was the same. Even without talking in real life, their bond grew stronger.

🏡 PART 2: The Missed Invitation
One day, Zorahi's family had a housewarming party. She sent an invite to Isabo, but he didn't notice it. Zorahi was very busy that day and couldn't call or message him. At night, she was upset that he didn't come. She tried to hide her feelings, but deep inside, she wished he had come. It would've made her day special.
They had a small argument in chat. Zorahi asked him why he didn't come. Isabo explained he didn't see the invitation. After a bit of tension, he asked for pictures from the event, and she sent them. Slowly, they started chatting normally again.

👁️ PART 3: The Broken Trust
One evening, Isabo was passing by Zorahi's aunt's house. She came outside wearing a new dress. Isabo noticed her and went home with a smile. He messaged her later.
But from a balcony nearby, another boy saw Zorahi and felt attracted to her. He noticed that Zorahi only chats with Isabo and they don't talk in person. So he wrote a fake love letter and gave it to his little sister, asking her to deliver it to Zorahi.
Later, the little girl gave the letter while Zorahi was visiting her aunt. But her uncle saw it from the window. He stopped the girl and asked where the letter came from. She got scared and said, "A boy on a bike told me to give this letter to the girl coming in 10 minutes."
Zorahi was shocked. She had no idea about the letter. Her father and uncle got angry and started questioning her. She cried and said she didn't know anything. Her cousin (like a big brother to her) took her phone, checked her chats, and found messages from Isabo. But he didn't say anything to the family. He just said, "Everything is okay."
Later, her cousin messaged Isabo from Zorahi's phone, pretending to be her. Isabo had no idea what was going on. He just heard something from his friend who lived near Zorahi's house. Isabo asked who gave the letter. The cousin replied (as Zorahi), "My big bro found out. Let's delete the chat and start fresh."
Isabo was confused but trusted her words. He deleted the chat. Then Zorahi's phone was taken away. She didn't block him, but her cousin did. After that, Isabo struggled to talk to her again, but it was no use.

🚌 PART 4: The Misunderstanding Grows
Later, in the first year of college, Isabo got a bestie who was a girl. He wasn't serious about her but used to spend time like friends. One day, they were riding on a bike. At the same time, Zorahi, sitting in her college bus, saw them from the road.
She felt hurt. She thought, "Isabo forgot me… he found a new girl." Her heart broke. She removed him from her heart silently.
Later, when Isabo finally saw Zorahi somewhere, he felt happy. But she didn't look at him. She walked away without any emotion. This small action deeply hurt Isabo.

🌑 PART 5: The Dark Days
After all this, Isabo went into deep depression. His bright smile slowly faded. He became silent. His friends noticed that he didn't talk much. Even when he met them, he didn't laugh. Inside, he was broken, but outside, he stayed calm.
During this time, Isabo started reading about psychology and human behavior. He got deeply interested in manipulation tactics, emotions, and the mind. He kept this secret. He didn't share it with anyone. Slowly, he became smarter, sharper, and more focused — but also more distant and cold.

🧠 PART 6: The Discovery
Years passed. Isabo became obsessed with the idea of parallel worlds. He wanted to change his life, or at least find a world where things had gone differently. He built a machine in his basement to shift his soul into another version of reality.
One day, the experiment worked. Isabo's soul entered a parallel world where he saw Zorahi on the opposite side of the road. He ran toward her — but got hit by a car and died in that world.
In the real world, his heart kept beating, but no blood reached his brain. He fell into a coma. His soul got locked in that parallel world — on that very road.
Only Zorahi could see his soul. When she saw him, she was shocked. Isabo said, "Nothing… I was just doing an experiment."
She asked his old friend Yamato, and found out about the incident. She cried and visited the road where it happened.

📓 PART 7: The Basement Truth
Zorahi started visiting that road every evening. One day, Isabo's soul told her, "Go to my house. In the basement, you'll find a diary. It has everything. My story. My thoughts. My experiment."
Zorahi went to his house and found the basement room. She read the diary and realized how much he loved her. He wasn't just chasing science — he was chasing her.

🕰️ PART 8: The Sacrifice
Zorahi studied everything she could about parallel worlds. Years passed. One day, in a restaurant, she noticed something — when bubbles rose in one bottle, they sank in another. That gave her an idea: if Isabo's soul can't come back here, maybe my soul can go to him.
She worked for years and finally recreated the machine.
On October 21, she went to the road and said, "I found a way. Tomorrow, I will come to your world."
The next morning, she met all her friends and family. At night, she sat in the machine.
Her assistant cried and said, "Madam, you are too kind. You're giving your life."
Zorahi smiled and replied, "This is not the end. It's where I belong."
She activated the machine.

💫 FINAL PART: Together Again
In the parallel world, Isabo saw Zorahi standing beside him.
Their souls met.
They looked into each other's eyes. All the pain, silence, waiting — everything ended.
They stood hand in hand.
No one else could see them. But in their world, they were finally together — forever.
As they faded into the light, Isabo smiled and said:
"Thank you, dear."
