Ten days after their quiet seaside wedding, Yuki was standing over Kenji’s grave. At first, the loss felt cruel and impossible to understand, especially after such a short time together.
Only later did she realize what Kenji had truly given her. He was not an escape, but a mirror — someone who accepted her completely, without pressure, judgment, or the need to prove herself.
As months passed, his notes, recipes, and small belongings became reminders that love is not measured only by years. Yuki did not simply move on; she moved forward, carrying the rare gift of being truly seen, even if only for ten extraordinary days.
