In a sunflower field, a gray-haired boy said to the golden-haired boy in front of him, “See you tomorrow.”
Then they were separated for more than a decade.
When they met again, one was the other's prisoner.
He said, “I'll get you out.”
The other said, “You just need a tool, or a pawn.”
His hand didn't shake when he put on the collar.
It didn't shake when he took it off, either.
But after the collar was removed, a sentence was engraved on his neck:
“I am here.”
It took him many years to understand
Some relationships aren't about rescue, but guidance.
He hadn't come to save him. He had come to become his compass.
A somewhat literary style / a slow, steady romance / slow burn
One-on-one, happy ending
