Its Mia Moon [HOT · 2027]

There were nights when she walked alone to the river and sat where the current wrote secrets on the water. She would watch the city reflected back at her, a constellation of low lights, and imagine the lives that shimmered behind each window. She thought of the town as a living book with pages that sometimes needed to be turned gently. She sometimes did not speak, but if you sat beside her, the silence felt like an offering, generous and content.
