Heehee, my friends and family are the source of my inspiration (˵¯͒〰¯͒˵)
“Xu Siyu, you can’t escape.”
The shadow of being imprisoned to death in my past life follows me everywhere.
Reborn at nineteen, I carry fractured memories and an increasingly severe psychological illness, trying to find a safe distance behind the camera.
My family finds me the best therapists, but they can’t heal the cracks deep in my soul.
Until I meet him...
He remembers everything I like, understands every glance I give, and even has habits uncannily like those of my childhood friend.
He says he’ll be my personal photographer and take me around the world to see every play of light and shadow.
In front of his camera, I smile sincerely for the first time.
But when I fall into the gentle trap he has so carefully prepared,
I see, in the developer fluid of the darkroom, the complete album of my death in my past life.
“Siyu, you’ll never escape my lens.”
He gently wipes away my tears, as if polishing the lens of his most precious camera.
It turns out the most terrifying thing in this world isn’t death,
but believing you’ve found salvation,
when from the very beginning it was a one-way ticket to hell.
